Hello!
Are there any programs that focus on increasing the weight during the session?
Most programs stick with a steady weight/reps protocol and increasing overtime, like simple and sinister. But I feel good when I increase the weight during a workout. something like this for 10 rep swings for example: 16, 16, 20, 20, 24, 24, 32, 32, 40, 40.
Then TGUs: 16/16, 20/20, 24/24, 32/32, 40/40.
I don’t see many programs that follow this type of protocol. Is there a reason for that? Does anybody train this way? Are there any benefits to it?
Like I said, I feel pretty good when I do those types of workouts. I usually auto regulate and only go up in weight if I feel strong. That way, the warm up is the work out, I’m moving some heavy weight, and I’m not really over training. Any thoughts about this type of training, or does anyone know of any programs I follow this protocol? Thanks.
