3 Day FB Hypertrophy. Cycle 3. Session D.

sRPE @8
BW - 222

Deadlift - 325X3, 3, 3 @~5

031 Tempo Work w/ Intensity Techniques:

Stationary Bike - HIIT; 10 minutes

Wasn't sure how the reduction in set volume this cycle combined with everything being taken "past failure" would effect recovery markers.  Generally I feel as well or better recovered than when I was doing more sets further from failure, and the various trackers in the RTS app seem to agree.

I had provisionally conceived of this as "Deload by HIT," but I wasn't sure how that would play out in practice.  Jury is still out, but it's looking like a "maybe."
