I wouldnt compare % for lifts that different personally. If the prescription is 70% it's 70% of that variation. Whether that's comp, 2ct, tempo, pin etc. And the RPE should reflect near identically...

Some nasty deadlift assistance work that.

Not logging since am full coached.
Will update every dev block with start and end vids, might start a new log for that.

Cg and larsen bench looking great.

Think you need more singles though 😉

Checking in, looks like good work

Certainly the way to go about it if you do try it

Yeah just more experience and exposure to different methodologies.
I don't think it's terrible or anything, I just don't think it ever wins the pro-neg balancing act

I dislike it,

I find starting lower and finishing very high both unnecessary, and feel like set volume for the dev block is more productive and less noisy.

Not to say it doesn't work, but to...

Just for a comparison, after being unfocused and doing random stuff (that generally ended up being less volume more intensity because its easier and quicker).
I've finally settled back onto...

Drop average rpe, add weekly sets.
Test for a bit and see if it helps

Poor intensity management tends to display in early overreaching and stalling

I'm surprised no one has mentioned just setting up the rack properly so safety height is just below your arch.

There's literally no danger or dumping plates issue if you are using the right...

Doing the right amount of hard ish work over time is all that matters really. Progressive overload is just a side effect.
As you get bigger you get stronger, as you get stronger the old weight is...

The program is not particularly built around increasing bench at all, no variations and no real rep range variety.

Both of which are very useful for everyone looking to bench more ime.
...

So adjust.
Personally my bench response best to both singles and doubles, and higher rep assistance.
Everytime I put in 6 bench slots in 4 days it suddenly just becomes linear gains.
Tried less...

Depends on athletic history and weight.

Bench 20-80kg
Squat 30-90kg
Deadlift 40-140kg
Press 20-40kg

Not all comp or barbell necessarily. Just those movement patterns

Nothings necessary, and there are many variations of flat bench to utilise as well.

From an overall hypertrophy perspective, you probably want an incline or dB incline in their sometimes, but...

3 upper 2 lower is viable.
All depends how you lay it out

Yeah I'd go with this too, no @9s for a good while.
