When to reach for this template

All T1 loads off the squat training max (~85-90% 1RM), not the 1RM. The 9-set wave peaks at the set-3 1+ AMRAP (~85% TM, RPE 9-9.5; rack on form break or knee cave), then six backoff sets. Set-3 AMRAP count is the weekly LP trigger: 0-1 reps hold TM, 2-3 add 5 kg, 4+ add 5-7.5 kg. T2 sumo runs 8 volume sets off a sumo TM (~10% below conventional) — reset each rep, no touch-and-go. If low back flags, cut T2 to 6 sets. Belt optional on backoff sets.
