Yes. Its a ME set. If you get 6 reps on a lift last week was only a max 5. That counts Being the goal WAS 5, (you will be adding weight the next work out) and if the weight in a 5 set is a PR it counts. I just don't want to see people play sets and weight. Thats not truely a PR anyone can play the reps and weight for a pr. I could play between 6-8 reps and manipulate it to be a PR 3 weeks in a row for a PR. See were I'm coming from?

How you figure? After 2 weeks you should have all your first ME lifts in for a PR base line.
