This squatting cycle is an example of what is called wave loading. Each set has two main effects : potentiating and recruiting. When the loads are picked properly, each wave creates potentation, thus strength performance, while minimizing fatigue. It is critical that one performs the concentric range as explosively as possible(hence the X). As you reach the top waves, you will be in a state of maximal CNS activation. Essentially, each cycle feeds itself. Be sure that your second wave is heavier than your first so that you receive maximum benefit.

“Potentiate simply means to intensify or make powerful”
