FT Questions....

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

Least Effective Dose.

A time saver for the stretches (esp. occlusion stretches) can be to finish an exercise, move to the next, set up quickly there (1st warm-up set) and then go right into the stretches as you warm-up.

So, you might finish back, and then (quickly - we want metabolic stress during the occlusion stretch) move to a chest press, load it and do a light warm-up, adjust the machine etc. and then do a bilateral stretch on the nearest pulldown or unilateral lat stretches on a cross-bar.
