I’m just curious as to % wise what I’m suppose to use for my 100 rep- push downs and face pulls?

I might have missed it somewhere, but I’m pretty sure that those are not percentage based. I think it is more important to pick a challenging weight that you can handle for the challenge.

I didn’t miss it. It’s in the book and written in plain English.

You should be using joker percentages for 100 rep face pulls and push downs. So first you would 5/3/1 your face pulls and push downs (supersetted of course), then do 100 reps at 105%, 110% and 115% etc of your TM. duh…

This is all explained in the Beyond book - there is no %.

First off if your training for size why not do boring but big? As well use your brain… training maxes are for main lifts only not face pulls.
