Notes
-I'm using this first mesocycle to figure out my own RPE system. Last night I used the 6x3 volume rep protocol (did an extra set on accident). It is going to take a while to get comfortable with the RPE system. RPE 8 means 2 or more reps left in the tank. RPE 9 means only one more left in the tank. Honestly, I feel like I could have banged out 8 reps if I really wanted to...but I don't think the point is to use an "insanity set" as a basis for your RPE.
-I'm doing everything unbelted from here on out. I don't care what happens to my numbers. I'll be better off in the long run. Later I'll use the belt as a tool, not a crutch.
-Matt and I fucked up assistance. Ordinarily the second exercise is supposed to be RPE based too. The last exercise is 4-5 sets of 8 reps.
-I'm sore as fuck already.
