I use this drop off in my training:
5-7% 1-5 reps
10-12% 6-8 reps
15% 9-12 reps
20% GVT training or shock training or High Density methodology.
Is good ?
Interesting…
How do you implement ‘critical drop off point’ into doing ‘straight sets’ (e.g. sets of five with same weight)? How much reps do you allow to fall?
For example:
100kgx5
100kgx5
100kgx4
100kgx2
5-7% 1-5 reps
10-12% 6-8 reps
15% 9-12 reps
20% GVT training or shock training or High Density methodology.
% is with Weigth ,with Reps is double-triple.
Example 10-21% with 1-5 reps
-100kgx5
–100kgx5
—100kgx4 or minus weigth(ex 95kg) if impossible 100 Kg of 4 reps
----100kgx3-4 or 95 kg
i would assume that he decreases rest time, and increases rep range…
example…315 15 reps 3 min
315 16 reps 2.5 min…
until u snap the weight back…
something like that.

I would allow a rep or two decrease in 1-5 rep zone, maybe 2-3 reps in 5-8 zone and and 3-4 in 8-12 zone?
thats not a drop-off, thats sound like tanking,
allow no more than 1 rep every 8… assuming that you are doing atleast 6 -9 sets…
ciao
Yes…for me
Straight sets might cause you problems though. Only your first set will be a fresh, real drop off, the rest with have added fatigue already so doing the same drop off won’t be as accurate as it may seem. You could either rotate your exercises (doing one of each before repeating a second set) or through trial and error, figure out what an appropriate drop off would be for each exercise. ( example might be 2 reps for the first exercise but even with higher reps on the 5th exercise you’d still only use 1 rep because it would account for both fatigue in that lift and total day fatigue).
It’s just a thought, good concept though.
is to your liking ? what would change?
Other opinion?
