Finally ordered my inzer lever and it came today. Thanks doc for the recommendations on thickness and sizing etc (it's been a few months since I asked about it). Can you remind me your suggestions for breaking it in?

I hope you put it to good use.

Just wear it as often as possible...like while having sex, mowing the lawn, at the gym, etc. You can also roll it up tight and clamp it so it doesn't unroll. Let it sit that way for a while then reverse roll it and do the same. It shouldn't take too long to break it in through wearing it at the gym and keeping it rolled while not in use.

If you put it on while having sex the woman may take it the wrong way.

Thats what i did with mine Doc, rolled it up tight one way, then the other and kept working it by bending it n half every cpl inches, and its very comfy now.
Never tried having sex with it on cause that would be weird... But i do beat off with it on [emoji50]

It's been forever since I've done a touch and go bench. The things we give up.

I did mostly paused for Sheiko but now with RTS style programming I'm doing 6 pressing movements a week. Can't all be competition paused bench lol. Plus you can load the bar more with touch and go obviously.

I really miss that part but at the same time I know when I do go back to it I'll be loading more than before.

I liked the six pressing and six lower body slots with RTS, I took that idea into what I've been doing lately. Overall, RTS didn't work out well for me though. I'd convince myself a 10 was really a 9 and chase PRs that I knew would exceed the RPE I was shooting for. I really ran myself into the ground on lower body that way and regressed a bit.

That's one of the first thing Tuchscherer talks about when implementing the RPE lol. It's the same problem I have at times. I tend to overshoot the RPE I'm working towards.

Not a good day at all. Shitty sleep, long day, stress, etc all had me feeling weak as hell. No power, slow bar speed, and had to grind out some reps.

We couldn't have good days if bad ones didn't exist.

For the bad days out comes the whoopie cushion...

That's what I've liked about my current program. Volume sets first with an AMRAP set as the last set. It's kept me in the lower RPE range for a majority of my work.

Hey Doc can you explain what the x4 @9 and x6 @8 means please?

 

[Docd187123]

Hey Doc can you explain what the x4 @9 and x6 @8 means please?

The number before the x is the amount of reps done. The number after the "@" is the RPE number I'm working towards.

x4 @9 means I'm doing sets of 4reps and RPE of 9. x6 @8 means sets of 6reps for RPE 8.

RPE 10 is max effort, RPE 9 means 1 rep left in the tank, RPE 8 means 2-3 reps in the tank and the weight was too much to have fast bar speed, RPE 7 means you have fast bar speed with maximal force applied or speed work, RPE 6 means fast bar speed with minimal to moderate effort.

So when I say x4 @9 that means I do my normal warmups and then work up in sets of 4 until I get to a weight that I COULD HAVE done 5 reps but didn't. I only did the 4 reps like I want and 1 left in the tank. X6 @8 means warmup and work up in sets of 6 until I get to a weight that I could have done only 2-3 more reps but didn't. I only did the 6 reps.
