Hi All,
Just bought the 12 week template and aim to start on 15th Jan and have a couple of quick questions…
-
Regarding the asterisk next to the 5x5 under the volume/RPE of comp lifts, does this relate to the RPE 9 comment “*take 3-5% off bar after @ 9 set to keep RPE 9” or is this merely a typo? Referring the percentage guidelines this seems to be the case?
-
Could you elaborate on the 3-5% off the bar to keep RPE at 9? Even if you rest 4-5 mins between sets, is the program implying that you will not be able to perform the set at the same weight at RPE 9 due to accumulated fatigue?
Many Thanks
