Lifting above 98% won't change your potential 100% during consecutive lifts? I don't know where I got that idea. I guess I need to do some more reading.

Where do you draw the line? Doing a 790 squat to acclimate yourself to an 800 squat is retarded. 10lbs is definitely relative to the lifter.

The reason I mentioned percentages is that it was the easiest way to explain myself. And percentages are indicative of what happens.

I'm sure it's possible to miss a lift due to not enough acclimation. In the powerlifting meets I've been to, I've never seen a lifter go over 90% while warming up. Then again, you could qualify most first attempts as that last acclimation.
