It's such a great method. When you really set your mind to try to reach failure you realize that it's really really tough to get there (impossible for me on certain exercises like leg extensions, for example). I see a lot of dudes in the gym half repping shit thinking they've reach failure because it's burning.
Been trying to figure out and understand my 3 to 0 rir range this meso. Thank you for the video, it was very helpful and I will use it when planning my next meso
great talk! so nice watching you grow, both in mind and body, through the years. i'm finding myself nodding in agreement as i listen to you, which reflects my own growth as well. very exciting stuff! ps: i also just weight out pieces of the treats i get and have some here and there, often lasting weeks/months lol
Great video! Really like this style of insight in your training! Would love to see you go over form videos of you/other people and critique/improve those. Also would really like to see you go over a mesocycle and designing a new one based on the previous. Those would really help!
Very useful explanation. One thing I find interesting, RIR “feeling” changes from exercise to exercise. On some exercises I feel I can just keep grinding reps, and true RIR doesn’t actually equate to the feeling I’m getting. For me, pulling movements are the most challenging to gauge… all of a sudden I hit a wall, and realize I’m actually closer to failure than what I first estimated.
Great explanation on the dependency of the specific movement regarding RPE! :) I feel especially at leg movements it often gets very hard when you still have 3 or 4 reps left to failure - that makes it so much more important to occasionally (e.g. in an overreaching week) to actually reach failure in those exercises (safely) Would you recommend such a accumulation scheme (RIR 3 to 0 from week 1 to 4) even on a 4 week minicut or would you keep volume/intensity the same during such a phase?
Wow Steve you are jacked bro! Thankyou for the awesome video's you guys are awesome!
Thanks Dan!

Damn leg extensions. There’s always one more rep!

My pleasure Eric
The improvement in your physique is very noticeable! Keep up the grind!
Appreciate that man

Thanks for following my journey Petros!
Happy Easter again!
Aha thanks!
Great video!
Cheers
Please upload full fledged, more of your training session videos regularly, if possible. Thanks in advance.
I will do my best!

Oooo thanks for the ideas, I will keep them in mind.
such a useful/informative video 👏🏼👌🏽
Glad to hear it

We’d keep volume the same but escalate the intensity

Looking huge.
I just do 8-10 sets per session. All to failure
