Question about weight increment

[pace1987]

Are we suppose to go up in weights the 2nd week in mesco 1? The reason I ask is because I notice that the weight that we use goes up a couple lbs in the workout card on some exercises. TIA

I think we go up to 65% from 60% for some exercises, so that would mean the weight would increase slightly. I LOVE that the WM figures all the weights out for us (once we figure out our 1RM).

Yes, I think they go up each week. In Mesocycle 1 you go from 60% to 70% of the 1RM, in Mesocycle 2 from 70% to 80% and in Mesocycle 3 from 80% to 90%; you also go down in reps in each Mesocycle.

Thanks that is what I thought. I am so glad I did the 1RM tests
