If heavier loads elicit more of the CNS and increase fiber activation, would it be helpful to use 1 or 2 sets in the 1-3 rep range before the actual set for a given exercise?
To explain myself better, in the week of 15s before doing a squat I would do:
1x10 warmup (50% workout weight)
1x3 CNS activation (90% of 1RM)
2 minute rest
1x15 (workout weight)
Is this valid and helpful for strength and hypertrophy gains? Would it get in the way of progressive overload?
