a correct way of progression?
thanks, and my 2nd question:
say my routine says 4x8 reps, same weight
for example on 1st workout:
1 set: 7 reps x 100kg
2 set: 7 reps x 100kg
3 set: 6 reps x 100kg
4 set: 5 reps x 100kg
2nd workout:
1 set: 8 reps x 100kg
2 set: 8 reps x 100kg
3 set: 7 reps x 100kg
4 set: 6 reps x 100kg
3rd workout:
1 set: 8 reps x 100kg
2 set: 8 reps x 100kg
3 set: 8 reps x 100kg
4 set: 8 reps x 100kg
4rd workout (add weight)
1 set: 8 reps x 102kg
2 set: 7 reps x 102kg
3 set: 6 reps x 102kg
4 set: 6 reps x 102kg
etc etc
briefly: add weight when I complete all 8,8,8,8 reps? and even though I can do 2 more reps on 1st set, and 1 more rep on 2nd I do only planned reps, correct?
im asking you because ssome people say it is a bad way, because you could do 2-3 more reps on the 1st set , but you dont do it
for example:
my routine states that I should do 4 sets 10 reps of weighted pullups.
for now my max is (only bodyweight): 9 reps, 7 reps, 5 reps, 5 reps
so should I wait and try to add reps each workout till I get all 10, 10, 10, 10 and then start to adding weight and get sth like 10, 9, 8, 7 and next time 10,10,10,8 etc. and up weight again when i reach 10,10,10,10
is that correct way of progression?
