This Saturday is 11 weeks out from the TSC.
I want to set a PR. In March at the end of a barbell-centric cycle I pulled 325 for 5 as a rep PR. Didn’t test a max single at that time. I think I could do 375 (?) by 10/26.
I haven’t done much DL since then.
I think I have plenty of mass (6’0”, 220lbs @ ~23%BF, about 170 non-fat mass), but an inefficient neuro-muscular part of the equation to unlock my true strength. So I don’t know if I should be doing 5’s (like PTTP or Reload) or more singles (like Daily Dose Deadlift or Vodka and Pickles). Or a combination, like Surovetsky (2 days)?
With 11.5 weeks, should I do a few weeks of one thing and then 4-6 weeks of a specific peaking cycle?
