the first day of my journal i didnt have severe shoulder injuries. i got injured midway through. my 1RM dropped. 185x2 was as rare as ever for me. my form sucked and i needed a spot.
even then, i turned my 185x2 into 10x3x185.

I am not sure what you mean by converted your 3x3 max, to a 10x3 max. Has that contributed to you pushing your one rep max up at all?
|
theoretically it should. i havent done a 1RM test. i dont need to right now.
by converting my 3x3 max into my 10x3 max means that the 185 i used to struggle with to do 3 sets of 3 reps has now become a weight i can use comfortably to do 10 sets of 3 reps @ 60 second rest intervals.

also, what is your real PR, not estimated, is it the 215x1 you posted?
|
no. 215x1 was a long time ago. even before my 3x3 max was 185. i dont do 1RM testing matt, so i have no idea what my 1RM is.
