๐ Notes & Tips
- Form > reps. Stop if bar speed slows or form breaks.
- Choose the right % load. Too heavy = low reps, poor data. Too light = inflated max.
- Best rep range is 6โ12. More accurate estimates than super high reps.
- Record the set. Watch endurance progress week-to-week.
- Use est. max as training number. Safer than grinding a risky single.
