Good log man. I’ll certainly be following and drawing ideas.
Recently I read an old article by CT(I can’t post the link because of the stupid rule of no external links) in which he suggested a good loading parameter
Sets 1-3: Warm Up with 60% or less of your comp max/PR
Sets 4-7: Work up to daily max
Sets 8-10: Daily Max-40 lbs for 3 reps
Sets 11-12: Daily Max-25 for 2 reps
He also provided a sample programme but stated you can customize it to your needs, which is what I’ll do.[/quote]
Hey sorry, looked over this earlier, can you link the article, I love to read info in regards to strength training.
About the structure. It seems very similar to what I do in the sense of ramping up to the top set. I just really mess around with reps, and even sometimes for squat will pause in the hole until I get to about 80%. Back off set wise I do it more by % as in 90% and 95% lifts. I think that -40 and -25 could definitely work at first but both numbers tend to be more than the 90/95 and eventually when you are at a certain number of days of squat/bench/pull it might wear you out a little more. Even though it only changes by like 10ish pounds.
Hope that helped. Remember I am still experimenting myself so truly there is no perfect way to do this yet.
