For my next cycle I am going to do 4 weeks of 5s instead of 2 weeks of 5s and 2 weeks of negatives.
Do I build up to use my 5RM at the end of the 2nd week like in the other cycles, then keep using that same weight for the next 2 weeks, or do I space out my increments so I hit my 5RM at the end of the 4th week?
The second option seems like I'd be using too light of a weight for most of the 5s, but the first option means going very very close to failure at every workout for 2 weeks...
