Use the same loads used on June 24, but aim to achieve at least 6 reps on each set. If you missed this session on June 24, use the first two sets to build to a relatively heavy load, and perform the final three sets at a load that you can complete 5 reps, but the 6th rep will be extremely challenging to make.
