So I'm doing warm-ups for every exercise up until I hit the 10 rep range. Once I hit the 10-12 rep range on heavy day I'm doing warm ups for the first three as required, but not the rest. On medium...

The pain is along the top (with palm up) just to the left of center.

I've used an ez curl before and it seemed to help.

How do the weights look? In "spec"?

So I did this yesterday.

Passed them all. BOR was a close one.

Going to start the next cycle (4) on Monday.

Here are my weights.

Squat - 175lbs
Bench - 125lbs

Ok. What way would be more beneficial?

Start back at the 9-10 rep range and work back up to test day or do 10 rep "test" at the higher weight and go from there?

Shouldn't they all be an easy pass? I mean, I've completed the 3 days of 11 reps with 2 warm up sets and 2 working sets. Shouldn't one work weight set ( no warm ups) be easy?

EDIT: I forgot about...

So, just one set of 10 reps for each exercise?

And if I pass them all I start back at a regular 8 rep cycle with that weight?

Ugh, was hoping it wouldn't be that much of a set back.

Ok. So test day didn't happen due to Thanksgiving etc.

So I'm thinking I can repeat the medium and light day 11 rep workouts tomorrow and Friday and then do test day Monday.

Thoughts?

Ok. I think I'd rather do the 2nd heavy on Friday and regular test day on Monday.

So, I'm going to have to skip my workout today. Cycle 3 and today would be medium day 11 reps. 2nd covid shot has me down.

With Monday being test day, should I do another heavy day tomorrow or...

Okay. As I mentioned before I shortened my rest period etween sets because I didn't feel I was working the muscle enough. I'm not going to say every rep was easy, but at the end of a session I didn't...

I thought the point of a fatigued based system was that you wanted the last few reps on your final set to be grinders.

AKA: just shy of failure

Maybe I misinterpreted something somewhere

So I should take the full 90sec on heavy day then? Even if I'm able to keep proper form with a 1min rest?

I have a question regarding rest times between sets.

I have read on a few different forums. The higher the rep count the longer your rest between sets should be.

Seeing this is a fatigued...

So, on my light days it's only taking me 35-40 minutes to complete all the lifts. This is doing warm ups for every lift as well.

I dont think all my weights are too low.

Is that about an...

On lower rep days ( early in the cycle) is ok to do all the heavy weight reps at once if you can? Or is the rest between mandatory?

🤣🤣🤣

Video is a great idea. Can't really watch yourself in the mirror while doing bench. Thank you!

Thank you for the info. I'll have to take a closer look at my form. Going to take the advice below as well.

Hi guys,

So, on my bench press I can feel it a lot more in my right tricep to that I can in my left. Hands are equal distance from each other and equal distance from centre of the bar. And from...
