Muscle Round dumb question

[Scott Stevenson]

It depend on how much margin I have. if I fail in the sixth set I can increase more load, if I fail in the fifth increase less load, if I fail in the fourth I usually try to increase the reps or increase even less load (this usually happens late in the blast/cruise cycle).

You said, "Then continuing from week to week and from month to month with the progressive overload I find myself failing no longer in the last set, instead I got my failure poin gradually in the previous series (obviously never before the fourth set)."

When the above is happening - you're increasing load so much that the failure point occurs progressively earlier and earlier during the MR - how do you decide in this scenario how much to increase the load?...

In other words, what is your strategy here for ensuring progressive overload?...

You've changing the weight so much - each and every time you use a given exercise for a MR - that the reps are continually decreasing, so there's not comparison to see if performance is improving.

Do you ever leave the weight the same, week after week, and attempt to get more reps in the MR before the failure point?...

Do you ever look back at a previously heavy load (fewer reps before failure) with an exercise you've not used in a while and see if your performance is improved?...
