Indeed. I thought the exact same way, however I believe Rihad was right when said "may not be". Obviously his advices were tested on himself and his clients, so we have a mix of assisted and natural trainers. In other words, take his (good) advices with a grain of salt.

You've got mail.

It's a good suggestion, no doubt, but I prefer to focus on RPE because strength levels can oscilate from day to day...

Stop Jester, you are humiliating me. Rehab on 180kg deads?! It's not even my max...

Interesting. By the way...255lbs at 6' and 8%BF? This guy used to be a monster, even on AAS. Despite that, I found his articles interesting, maybe the myo-reps being the most one. I tried it on the last three sessions and as Mick said it has potential to burn out quickly, so I worked to stay...

http://myrevolution.no/blade/ http://borgefagerli.com/ Just to start. You can find other articles on Google also.

In this meantime we can read the posts from Blade. I have found a lot of stuff from him on the web. Good advices...

Considering his last three posts were on 2010, 2012 and 2014 we can expect new posts around 2016...

If you have good flexibility, a bigger caliper (spring loaded type) and a mirror you can actually take subscapular folder.

How are you doing on the new experiment?

Right. I believe you may benefit someway changing ranges but don't get too serious on it. There's very little difference. I suggested 12-8-6 to my wife only because she's dieting (so a lower limit to keep loads higher and spare muscle) and I don't want to submit her to 5RM loads. I see these...

Very good. did you track %BF variations? Any idea of your current p-ratio?

As advised on the ebook you should avoid 15's when cutting. The load isn't enough to induce the body to keep muscle tissue. As far as I know 10's are ok on a cut.

Overtraining is a real concern but I also think you can manage it by using RPE and avoiding to work very close to failure. I decided to ignore only one piece of Blade's advice and applied Myo-reps to deadlift. It was fantastic.

After reading the original article by Blade I decided to try it today. It's more demanding than a conventional set workout but I liked very much. Will try some more.

Sounds a bit complicated but also interesting. I tend to like scientifical approaches. Will read carefully. Thanks.

Indeed. That's another huge benefit I didn't realized earlier. It has been always a hassle to choose between 10 or 20 reps total, or whatever combination of sets and reps. It's a perfect approach for my current point in the cycle. The first week on 10's easily allows 2 x 10 reps on every lift...

So, after reading your explanation I realized I misunderstood the clustering concept. I always thought I should bang reps until failure and then proceed with clustering to fulfill the volume required. I overlooked an extreme important factor that is RPE (or any other fatigue diagnosis method one...

Good to hear it. I also dropped direct arm work nearly 6 months ago. Sometimes I would miss the pump from a good set of heavy curls but I'm living with that and recovery is much better now. What do you consider a relatively close OHP grip? I'm actually using a slightly larger than shoulder...
