Problem With (Perceived) Reps-In-Reserve
By Mladen Jovanovic on 09/05/2022The use of (perceived) reps-in-reserve (pRIR) in strength training has become one of the most prominent (subjective) auto-regulation methods. Another very common subjective auto-regulation approach that precedes pRIR, involves the use of the rate of perceived effort (or exertion), or RPE.

By Mihailo Tomic on 04/05/2022Create Custom Set and Rep Schemes With {STMr} Introduction – Part 3: Progression vs Adaptation (Visualized) In the video below, I am applying introduced 3 constructs (Manifestable 1RM, Prescription 1RM, and Load 1RM) in a few “sandbox” examples to demonstrate different progressions and problems we might face in the “wilderness”. The objective of using a percent-based prescription is to...
