Never could get my head around the idea that you should "cluster" your reps to attain the desired set total (using sub maximal weights within a rep range/max) I have always favoured "straight sets" in the belief that I should be able to do say 10 reps with a weight that is a % of my 10rm, from start to finish - without stopping.
Enter rest-pause (along the lines of super squats etc)
In a bid to increase, ahm, intensity i'm setting up my next cycle along the lines of 10rm for the 15's & 5rm/5's with a view to using one set per exercise. I'll probably set the 5's up by just running the 5/10% increments on for a couple of weeks.
Box Squats/Inc bench will have the ol' 24kg of chains factored into the weight on the bar. This should have the effect of easing the weak points into this type of loading.
Other ex's will be chest supported low-pulley row, seated DB press and for 2 weeks (end of 10's/start of 5's) tri pushdowns/seated OH extensions and EZ curls/Conc. curls.
Anyone who's used this type of regime, feel free to chip in with comments/advice etc...
