Percentages that follow the lifter, not the template

The classic weightlifting template is a beautiful grid of percentages - computed off a max you wrote down in week one. Eight weeks later you're stronger, the grid isn't, and every session is calibrated to a lifter who no longer exists.

Percentages only work when the number behind them is current. So here, the max is alive.

The re-anchoring block

Snatch and clean & jerk work is computed off your current maxes. Hit a make at a new top in training and the next block re-anchors - every percentage moves with the lifter.

The same is true in the other direction, and it matters just as much: a stretch of misses or slow bar speed recalibrates the loads instead of piling failure onto a max that isn't there right now.

Why it changes everything

Too light, and the block grooves technique at weights that don't move you forward. Too heavy, and every session becomes a miss-fest that teaches bailing, not lifting.

The zone where technique sharpens AND strength builds is narrow - and it moves as you do. Percentages that follow the lifter are how every week lands in it.
