Hey Scott, I was doing 1 and a half reps technique originally and then started noticing the issues, then moved onto straight sets of 25 reps and just aimed to progress on that each week. Same issues. Tryed 5's into the hole recently and just literally lose interest. I'm doing the pump sets with whatever movement i feel i can get the best mind muscle connection and contraction, some bodyparts are machines, (legs for instance are leg press and seated hamstring) Shoulders are dumbbells (Leaning away side laterals, one side at a time). I know this sounds like a just suck it up type issue but i seriously struggle with the pump work. I love fortitude training and the results over the past year and just need to figure this out to get more out of the program. I thought about trying some drop sets but haven't yet (I've never ventured into tier 3 basic yet as i struggle with recovery as a carpenter full time and young kids to keep up with outside of work) Tier 1 and 2 Basic have been amazing for me, even so with the pathetic pump work attempts.
Thanks Scott.
