Exactly!! I have done and will continue to do the exact same thing you speak of @guardian7 . I consider that spending a bit more time on the plateau before restarting the "climb." Case in point, during 1.0 I was interrupted for 12 days due to moving. Lots of heavy box and tub lifting, eating somewhat poorly, and typical work stressors. When I resumed training I did the 4 rep day for three consecutive sessions, adding a set every session. Similar to your description, I considered that an on ramp back onto the "Training Interstate." Also, back during 2.0 I also did a six week version as I could tell that my snatch strength was still transferring over to my press strength. There are a lot of variables to consider and doing the program but lengthening it is often the best way to ensure you get the most out of it, instead of prematurely advancing and not reaping the full benefits.
Right. It can be complicated in the execution but simple in the principle. Repeat or slow down the same progression as the original program. Own the weight as Pavel T. says.
