Leaf, its kind of funny that I saw your Facebook post this morning saying to go out and post some PRs this week. My son texted me after school and he set one on his Bench Press today at 185. We have been doing a kind of modified Smolov, Jr., just going 2 days a week since he is working out at school too. We have 2 more workouts left to complete it. I knew he was stronger now than we started it. To start at 70% of his max we started at 125. He did it but didn't think he could do 6 sets so we dropped to 65%, rounded off to 115. He did it but it was hard. He did 7 sets of 5 yesterday at 140 pounds. And only his last rep on the last 2 sets looked to be anywhere near hard. I had not heard of Smolov, Jr. until it was mentioned on here last year but it seems to be working for him.
