Hi all,
Thanks for releasing The Bridge program and for fielding so many follow-up questions.
A few questions from starting the bridge:
- Concerning RPEs for a set, are we supposed to let the cumulative fatigue influence the weights we select in later sets ? Or should we use the same weights throughout the set.
E.g. doing the OHP [5@6, 5@7, 5@8] X 4. So say 5@6 = 50kg, 5@7=55kg and 5@8= 57.5kg. But on e.g. the last set, 57.5kg may have turned into an @9 because of the previous work done. So in that case would it be OK to redo 55kg ?
-
Am I misinterpreting somehow, as it seems the sessions are very long. Following the suggested warmup and with ~4 minute waits in between sessions, just the OHP described above takes around 50 mins, no ?
-
Currently benching is close-grip and then 1-ct paused the next session. The latter really seems to hurt my shoulder. Wondering what might be an appropriate substitute for paused bench given this problem ?
Thanks !
