@CT:
So tried Incline Tilt with the DeadSquat Bar for the first time today.
I used the same exact pin setting that I have used with a barbell, 4" from chest start position.
Quite the humbling experience…
My last BB Incline Tilt was ramp to 1RM - 335, clusters at 300 and 270 max/15 sec/max
Today:
1RM - 285lbs
Clusters - 255 x 3, 4, 6 (interesting how last cluster increased that much; guessing my body is learning the movement)
Last layer I did 8 sets of 3 with 30 secs in between with 240lbs.
There was no drop off in performance - if anything, performance increased into the 5th - 7th sets.
Triceps highly stimulated.
The movement almost feels awkward at first.
Is this what you experienced as well?
What does that tell you that my 1RM ramp was so much below my barbell max? Just a learned movement?
