Dan, great job! Your Spidey Sense is once again spot on. I love that you included the RIR for in season and out of season workouts in the MLD 2022 program!

Does that mean doing a method called greasing the groove for improving one specific movement is not optimal? Since you do multiple sets not close to failure with a long rest time.
