First and foremost is safety. Remember, you are talking about a lot of weight that you can only lift for a single rep. Needless to say, this is going to be a challenge. As such, you will need a) proper technique for the given lift, b) a good spotter or at the minimum a reliable safety measure, and c) proper warm up. In this section we will discuss how you can properly warm up towards your one-rep max.
