Relative load is a weighted rep sum for comparing complexes with each other. It is not a difficulty rating.
- Bell weight is capped by the weakest link — the whole complex runs at the load of the hardest single movement in it.
- Contains a high-skill movement. Technique degrades before strength does — stop the set when the shape goes, not when the reps run out.
