I was thinking I'd give this a try, or at least the base mesocycle.
My max is 330, and I just don't find it possible to do what the program says.
Week 1 could be done, but I don't see myself doing a triple with 304.
Should I still give this a try? I don't find the first week that hard, besides doing 231 x 9 ( I have problems as reps go up, I'm pretty tired by the time I warm up with 135 x 10 -seriously, probably because I haven't done more than 3 reps for a pretty long time). I don't think the volume is that bad, but I just don't see myself being able to squat 304 x 3 a week later. I suppose that 253 x 9 would be possible, I mean while I suck at reps as high as these, it would be possible to grind it out, if I take a 5 second rest between each rep, or even more. But 304 x 3, I just can't imagine that... maybe it's just me, but the difference between my 3rm and 1rm is quite big I would say.
