OK, So currently in week 4 of my first blast using FT. Yesterday was the first attempt at beating previous numbers from wk 1.
For quad we used a H/S plated loaded leg ext. I hit 90k for 12 on wk 1 and managed 100k for 9 on wk 4 (yesterday).
So I was just wondering when increasing weight obviously numbers will drop but how do I guage my progression. ie. If I was to hit 150k Squat for 12 then manage only 6 for 160k Would that still be classed as progression?
As the reps have dropped by half for only a 10k increase in weight.
I understand if im hitting a 6 then the following workout I can keep the same weight and try and beat my previous reps. Its just when I get ready to increase weights whats a good weight to rep ratio for progression.
Hope this makes sense.
Lol
