I was a Tier II man through and through but lifts were stalling out and from blast to blast with the same loading exercise selection I was only getting a couple of rep/+10 weight jumps. Now on tier I my lifts are rocketing up and I've shaken off the slight tendonitis I was getting in my left knee.
I will say though if you do it you have to commit to it 100%. While I used to go through the motions on the pump sets now I attack them like a man possessed.
I've also found (at least for myself) you straight up just have more energy for your pump sets. Can't hit a bunch of hard squats and then go through the gauntlet of pump sets and expect to be as fresh. Certainly lends itself to the quality of the reps!
