I see, fair enough.DCR wrote: ↑Wed Apr 10, 2024 8:24 amI already peaked; now I'm just hitting a reasonably heavy single each session to mostly hold on to my strength while I figure out wtf I'm gonna do next.Bolder wrote: ↑Tue Apr 09, 2024 9:10 pm Heavy singles (and peaking) only work for a short while. At top, three to six weeks (depending how soon you peak). I notice that my bench press tends to peak off sooner than my squats and deadlifts (obviously because the bench press uses smaller muscles). Time is always better spent building strength than testing strength anyway.
Don't be like me, trying to stretch out doing heavy singles and peaking for over six weeks, or unless if you're an advanced/elite heavyweight powerlifter lol.
That said... I did consider the other day whether I could get 375 lol.
I suppose getting the 375lb depends on how your last warm-up feels like.
