Started with squat for 6@RPE 5,6,7x2. The actual program was @RPE6,7,8x2, but since I tend to overshoot most things, I'm deliberately trying to be conservative here to build momentum throughout the training block. Squats were good, moved fairly well and appropriate RPE. Next was OHP, which I did the same thing with 6@RPE 5,6,7x3. All 3 top sets moved well. OHP can tend to bother my traps, so I want to be conservative here as well. RDL's were solid and I pushed these a bit harder then the other two movements, rating the top sets @RPE 8.
Basically what I want to do is keep efforts high enough to cause a stimulus, but not hard where my knees/shoulders are sore to the point they impact a workout later in the week. In the past what seems to happen is I'll feel good one or two days and push the effort (overshoot RPE sometimes). Then it hinders other WO's in the week to the point where I have to back WAY off or substitute exercises. Example, going too hard on deadlift prevents me from squatting effectively the next workout. Or, push OHP too hard and strain trap so bench WO is impacted. Plan is to try to keep consistent WO's through the block, starting conservative and building.
