See you know a whole lot more about this kind of training than I do I didn't really have clue one on how to use them.

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

LOL, yeah right!

Try it next time and you'll see. If you're planning on doing something like 3 x 5 with 315 or something, try doing your normal warmups up to 225 lbs, then KEEP that weight and do a few sets of triples as fast as you can with 45 seconds between your sets. When you're done, do a few acclimation sets of singles before starting that 315. You'll notice a HUGE difference in power.

Example:

135 x 12 (slow)
135 x 10 (fast)
185 x 8
225 x 3 x 3 (speed sets)
255 x 1
285 x 1
315 x worksets

Looks like a lot, but I usually do this for a 1 RM buildup. The first three sets only have about a minute between sets (for me), the speed sets have 45 seconds between sets, then the acclimations are also about a minute. I go pretty fast.
