Re: [HIT Digest] new workout

I take it you dont add weight when you go from your twenty rep set
to your ten then add more for your six?
Also do you go to failier or leave a rep or to in the bag?
Do you do the 20 10 6 thing for deads and squats to?

thanks for the tricep ideas I am going to give a partial bench a go
first I know what you mean about jarring in a power rack. I have
tried to just brush the pins but that may add extra stress in the
stretched position, so I now try not to touch the pins and just have
them sett lower and try and judge the depth of the lift myself.
Thanks again Jeremy
