So I notice you drop weight as you go. How close to failure do you go on your sets?
It’s really hard for me to say how close I get to failure on each set but I generally try and keep my form consistent throughout the workout, so if a set takes enough out of me I’ll lower the weight between 5 to 10 pounds for the next set. I’m really just going by feel each workout and I try to get into a certain zone where I feel like I’m sufficiently pushing myself while not risking injury too much.

How old are you? In 2019 you were 240 still there?
I am 25 right now, almost 25 and a half lol. I’ve been weighing in the low 230s since August but after my last refeed day I got to 238.4 with all the extra carbs.

Congrats on 230 recomp. I also feel a lil better knowing I’m 20 years older than ya being no where near your volume + intensity ability. I’m catching up thou! Haha.
