What are your lifting stats?
And if you don’t mind me asking, what is the point of doing 1 rep at a time? To me this is different than doing a single, where doing a single would be the most weight you can do for 1 rep. Doing the deadlift the way you do just puts less stress on the muscles.
Enough with all of the hippy talk, it’s weird… [/quote]
give it a try, keep a buffer, it must not be your real 1 RM, but not even far,
it’s very intense…with that weight I could hit 2 perfect reps in a row no more, and then game over…while so doing I have 8 reps, 1 each minute, and so an overall bigger poundage and stimuli…
of course it is not the whole workout… I also did 2x8 (conventional sets) at the snatch deadlift , and romanian deadlifts and 1 legged good morning
I organized the cycle like that though
wk1 4x6 2’ r.i.
wk2 5x5 2’ r.i.
wk3 6x4 2’ r.i.
wk4 8x3 2’ r.i.
wk5 8x2 2’ r.i.
wk6 8x1 1’ r.i.
wk7 8x1 1’ r.i.
wk8 8x1 1’ r.i.
always keeping a buffer obviously, getting closer to the real maximal repetition only the last week of the cycle
I use this scheme also for other muscles… bench-row / chin ups-militry press / squat
accessory movements: incline bench-1 arm row / pull ups (different grips)-close grip bench / front squat, bulgarian squat
on the accessory movement i stay on 6-8 reps…usually 2-3 sets each movement
I work then rotator cuff and the core, even being at home it is difficult having heavy wood chops for example… but soon!!!
