How to progress

The player self-check policy is to use completion of every listed dose while following the observable drill cues. If a player does not complete the listed dose with those cues, they can repeat the same dose before adding speed, repetitions, or resistance. This is a practice recommendation, not a guarantee of readiness or results.
