Cerberus,

I've quoted again what you wrote in case you might not have recalled.

From what I read, you didn't put forth any idea for me to comment on. You simply said what was working, I noted that and asked if you specifically wanted me to comment on something specifically?..

If someone says, "I love this car, it fits my needs. What do you think?..." there doesn't seem to be an issue there.

Now, below is something else...


How would you know whether you would have made more or less progress?... What are the tell tale signs for you?...

(BTW, in the FAQ of the book I talk about the notion of intentionally (or pre-planning, if experience tells you this would be a good idea), varying the volume Tier during a blast. There is no need to just stick to one volume Tier except at the outset (first few blasts) to see how you adapt to the training and get a feel for the outer edges of what you can recovery from. It's my intention that folks will change volume Tiers as needed (e.g., during show prep, depending on supp. use, lifestyle, work, diet, etc.) and even do so instinctively. I'm glad to see - I think - that you're making some "instinctive" changes.

To answer, how do I know I would or wouldn't get similar results one tier down. I don't....so that is one of the main reasons I'm trying it, I know I could always go back, or back and forth....but its kind of like the kid that jumps on sups and does twice as much as needed and says he gained muscle. Well I gained 8lbs, did I need to do all that I did to get them? There's only one way to really know. I know i recovered well and it works, I figured T3T was closest to what volume level i was doing, so that was my initial thoughts... but why adapt to something if less is as effective? That way there is room to evolve.

I do know when I'm between jobs and the gym is busy, my stretches are only 30-60 seconds. Id rather do 90+ individually so I can push safely....So curiosity and convenience is driving the train
