I'm saying that your 2RM for any exercise is more than your 8RM. You can't say that truthfully or something is seriously wrong.
You can't do 100lbs for 8 reps and then do 90lbs for 2 reps just so that you can argue intensity at 8 reps was higher than 2 reps.
And you can't do 8 singles and say each single was a higher % than a double.
I'm talking about a straight set.

I'm talking about reasonable gym times, not spending the whole day at the squat rack doing 1 rep every 10 minutes. And I never said anything about increasing the volume as high as you want, I said increasing volume decreases intensity.
I'm talking about everything in reasonable ranges.

Clustering is a way of achieving intensity while accumulating volume. So you can get more volume out of a given intensity by clustering, but you can achieve more volume than that by doing straight sets with sub-maximal weights.
The whole point is that if you're deloading you don't want to accumulate volume.

I don't know what you're trying to say. Are you saying that clustering does not create fatigue?
