@tdemaree

Thanks bro - I will slowly increase the weights over the next few sessions...probably go with 395 lbs next time out, if everything feels decent.

warmups are looking easier.. ull be ready for the bigger weights in a week or so

[BRETZERR]

@PowerlifterTy16

Yeah, we'll see how the next workout feels...might go up to 395 lbs...we'll see how the warm ups feel/look.

Thanks.

[BRETZERR]

@I2idiculous

Yeah, thanks, I am a bit unconventional...but it keeps it interesting.

@BRETZERR what program do you follow? im trying to reach the 405 barrier, im following the 11 week workout mon and fri

[bomdigi1]

those warmups look easyer every video man!

[BRETZERR]

@bomdigi1

That's the idea my friend...that's the idea. I really gage my feeling that day by the speed on the warm ups. I watch them back to see what weights to select for the next set. If 360 lbs looks slow on the vid, I won't go any heavier. Also, there are times where the weight felt slow, but the vid showed my I was faster then I thought...

It's a good tool. Hopefully more weight to come!

[bomdigi1]

@BRETZERR yes i know what you mean about watching yourself perform the movement, has helped me to seeing it in a 3rd persons view.

[BRETZERR]

@MikehHinkle

Thanks bro - I appreciate the comment.

[IncredibleHulkRobert]

For a comfortable day, you still came out with prs, good job.

[BRETZERR]

@IncredibleHulkRobert

Yeah, that's just because it is a newer movement to the routine...nothing special. Thanks though...

[ttorzzz]

so do you do 1 active rest day between each CNS intensive workout? or how do you do it?

[BRETZERR]

@ttorzzz

I really just play it by ear...if I am feeling sluggish/weak I will take an easy day like this. If on the next workout I am still feeling that way, or slightly better, then I will take another day like this...and so on until I feel fresh again.
