1 month ago i checked my 1 RM (Squat) and it was 80 kg.
So i picked about %85 of it and started with 65 kg..
Im working out pure strength so im doing only 3 reps per set and 2 sets. I work 3 days per week.
1st week it was 65 kg. 2nd week i increased the weight to 68 kg. And 3rd week to 70 kg.
However in the second workout day of the 3 rd. I couldnt complete the 3 rep of the 1 set. So i intentionally did 2 reps in the second set.
4th week i didnt increase the weight and worked-out 2 reps x 2 sets...
At the last day of 4th week, i tested my 1 RM and i saw that it increased to 90 kg!!
So now? What shall i go? Shall i just increase the 70 kg by 1 or 2 kgs or shall i take the %85 of the 90 kg and go with 75 kg?
I have been working out for 4 months... And my goal is neural strength gains. Not hypertrophy...
