Expert Insight: Surviving Smolov
Smolov adds up to 136 sets of heavy squats in 13 weeks. It has a high burnout rate. **Fatigue Management:** RepLog visualizes your "Tonnage" spiking during the Base Cycle. Seeing this huge wave of work helps you mentally prepare for the fatigue, reminding you that "feeling crushed" is part of the plan, not a sign of failure.
