That's the beauty of the conjugate system.. Just a bunch of principles, exercises, and round about structure.. All else only matters in how much more weight you press the following week, by ANY means necessary. Similiar in concept to Jeet Kun Do, where you take what works and use it.. And what works usually differs from person to person.

Yeah, I agree. I just figure that I'd say something because many will not consider something that didn't come direct from an article by Tate or Simmons . I've also found that people have a preconception about singles...that you can only do a couple and then you have to change exercises or that you can only do them once in a blue moon...all sorts of things like that.

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

No doubt.. The majority of articles I've read by them sorta seem more directed at themselves lol, or anyone who can handle A LOT of volume and intensity. For every ten intermediates who train according to those articles, two would succeed (if used verbatim without acknowledging the fact that it should be more open to interpretation based on individual recovery, experience, and strength level).

Nice PR! I bet when you devote a max testing day without all that work, you'd be in the 400's for sure.

Great PR!! I have to agree with 0311 in that going for a max day you would probably be over 400. Keep it going

Great job on the pr's!

You really should stick to your best max for that day...whatever you can do with good form. May or may not be a pr. This is why the idea is to accumulate work in the above 90% range...not just to hit big PR's.

You seem to be going for a pr and just stopping. Heavy singles are not the same as testing days!
