ITHURTZ and SlowNa, thank you very much.
I may know a thing or two about lifting when it comes to average joe, but im still definitely a beginner in the scheme of things.
I greatly appreciate the awesome information both of you have given me from time and time and now all of this ^ which is outstanding.
After this week, im going to finish up my normal "routine" since im already half-way through the week. Once this week is over, im going to be taking just about everything you listed above (ITHURTZ) and im going to give it a try, almost identical to what you mentioned. 4 sets per workout with reps at 7/7/7/5 or 4 on the last one.
I will keep you posted on the results.
Two questions for you. When doing the 7/7/7/5 on bench or any workout, the 7th/5th (last rep of each of set) it should such a struggle where i cant get an 8th rep, correct? So when it comes to lifts like bench, i should always find myself a spotter? But let's s say i dont have a spotter for that one day, then what should i do? Im not planning on trying to kill myself and dropping the bar on my neck.
Also, Lets say this. my first three sets of 7/7/7 on bench (or any lift in this case) i start out at, lets say 225. I get the first set all 7 reps, but then on the second set i only get 6, then on the third set i only 4, and at the last set i get 3. Should i downsize my weight on the next set to keep all my reps up at the 7 mark?
