Sounds good. The strategic deconditioning is what makes using submaximal weights doable...from there it's basically progressive loading in a linear periodiozation scheme. Having the two different workouts but you should allow you to go heavier then you normally would...but most people start with their max and subtract 5 to 10 pounds for each workout over the two week period of each phase.

So without taking into account you're doing two different workouts (I assume you are if you're following 0311's protocol) on leg press if you wanted to plan 10 pound increments that would mean your starting weight is 300. It's as simple as that and you can of course adjust if you feel like your going to hit your max too soon (in case you misfugured it) or if you feel like your so far away from you max you need to increase more sometimes. Really progressive load is all that matters.

If you act sanctimonious I will just list out your logical fallacies until you get pissed off and spew blasphemous remarks.
