    as a powerlifter what has worked for me and my clients is, on a &quot;heavy day&quot;, the first working (back off) set should be around RPE 6 and last set RPE 9, distributed across 3-5 sets.<br><br>if you hit RPE 9 by set 3-4, or if you get to 5 sets at any RPE greater than the RPE of set 1, you&apos;re done and we do accessory/hypertrophy work.<br><br>it&apos;s a similar approach on &quot;light days&quot; but we aim for RPE 5-8 across 4-6 sets often with technique focused variations.<br><br>this seems to autoregulate the volume to manage fatigue as well as hone the movement skills

    I was watching your video to learn and at about <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XdUbbflcJ8M&amp;t=1290">21:30</a> you had a video of an older, heavier, stronger athlete....lol that &nbsp;was me! &nbsp;I am not nearly as strong as I used to be because of a patellar tendon rupture but I am definitely older (53 going on 80 most days) and heavier!! &nbsp;Can&apos;t seem to lose weight these days and I agree with everything you said about volume with older and heavier athletes. &nbsp;Can&apos;t do what I used to be able to do at all!!! My older PRs of 84 and 99 are well in the past but still hope to make 60 and 75 as I age up to the 55 age group and continue to recover from that horrific knee injury. &nbsp;Thanks for including the videos of me:)

  • @ReggyDee · 11 months ago

    Great vid with lots of food for thought! &nbsp;Thanks!!!! &nbsp;Not that it really matters, but it&apos;s &quot;Prilepin&apos;s Chart/Table&quot; (not Prilepens) - get that man a spell checker - lol. &nbsp;BTW missing your commentary at the worlds - the other guy is ok/functional but the magic of the Seb/Max 1-2 punch makes for objectively better commentary. &nbsp;Cheers!

    Is this voluke/intensity spectrum similar for strength, power and speed training? Think powerlifter, oly lifter, jumper, sprinter.<br>I mean it&apos;s obvious that lifting for example 5x5@80% would be an overkill. But that may not be true for oly lifts and definitely not for jumps, sprints.
