Well that was a 1RM pull. My approach to the big lifts varies depending on the day. For example, sometimes I'll pick a weight figure (..
often 225 lbs.), and do an AMRAP for time, or I'll do 100 reps at any given weight. Every few weeks I'll work up to 85-90% of my 1RM, and then drop back down and do 50 reps at a prescribed weight. I do a lot of volume.
