To make up for the human error for the top set RPE iirc.

Bigger % you'd do more set to reach the same RPE and smaller you'd reach your fatigue faster because you'd subtract less weight.

Yes I understand the impact of changing the fatigue % has on the amount of sets you do but I don't understand why you would change them In the first place

Like whats the reason you would choose to take a higher fatigue % over a lower or middle one. Do you base it off how the top set felt?

You could always ask on this thread http://www.powerliftingtowin.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=429&start=300

From my understanding you chose the middle (always) and the range give you an estimation on how much fatigue you got from the exercise.

How did you get the back injury? It's common for people to bend lower back in on squat like they do on deadlift, I used to do it but try to avoid it now.

I did not listen to my body. It's all about dat rest.

What kind of diet do you follow as a powerlifter? Do you still track macros, or do you just try to eat above maintenance and get your micros in?
