I had to move the workout up from Monday to this morning (Sunday) because I’m going to be away monday-friday this week. I was not recovered enough, everything felt too hard, I didn’t get as many reps as I should have on some stuff, and I was just winded more than normal. I had to shoot my ass off the bench to avoid failing the last rep of incline bench.
I’m going to my sister-in-law’s in a pretty snooty area where the one-day gym passes are $25, so I might just bring my bands (eliteFTS light band, mini, and monster mini) and door anchor and try to make do.
Maybe something like
Tuesday
Single arm Band pulldowns
Push ups 1-arm
Band Rear delt fly
trap work
Band lateral raises
Tricep extension
Bicep curl
Thursday
Band Good mornings
Pistol squats
Hamstring curl
Single leg Calf raises
Abdominal stuff
Or just shell out the $25 and do my normal Wednesday workout.

I dunno, these squats are supposed to be 2RIR but they sure don’t feel like it, yet somehow I can do 3 sets of them, so maybe the first set is? This is why I don’t try to use RPE.
If you keep RiR constant over multiple sets you’ll reduce weight in subsequent sets to keep rep count and RiR the same.
OR
you’ll reduce the number of reps each set to hit the RiR target.
If you want to keep the weight and reps the same over multiple sets, RiR will necessarily decrease.
So you get to choose whether you’ll use RiR on the first set or the last set to choose your weights.
