Dr Scott,
I'm a couple of days into my first blast of FT training. I think I have ready your ebook twice already and every page of this forum!!! My wife is sick of hearing about FT! I have a question on your loading sets/zig zag sets. On tiers 2 and 3 you prescribe doing the first loading set of the compound movement a rep or two short of failure, doing an isolation movement to failure, and then doing the compound movement with less weight than the first set to failure. Am I reading this correctly? What is the reason you prescribe doing the first compound movement set short of failure? To necessitate a lighter load on the failure set? Part of ensuring you are warmed up for the failure set?
Thank you again for a great product, great forums, and great content!
Carl
