Hello HITTERS!

Recently I attempted 122.5 kilograms for the 20 repition squat, with the longer
term goal of being able to squat 140 kilograms for 20 repitions.

I could perhaps call this sort of workout, (that is, 1*20), an
endurance-strength workout, but then it actually occurred to me that I could,
sort of, "reverse" the order of sets and repitions, thus doing NOT 1*20, but
20*1.

This would be called, I think, strength-endurance.

When I tried this, the weight that I could use to twenty singles, was
considerable heavier, so I used "only" 120 kilograms for 30*1.

This style of training is also called "rest-pause training".

Perhaps this is something new that we all could try, that is, REVERSEING the
order of repitions and sets, this x sets of y repitions becomes y sets of x
repitions.

You could try 4*5 and 5*4, but with the whole idea in mind to fail ONLY ONCE (in
the true nature of HIT style training), AND on the last repition of the last
set.

Any thoughts on this matter and on this style of training?

----Sarn.
