Stalling, deloading, or another approach.
Okay, so I've been doing Starting strength for a while. I wanted to take a new approach to stalling and I wanted your guys opinions on my programming. So pretend you've been progressing on squats at 250 lbs for 3x5. Your following workout, you get 4 reps on your first set of 255. Instead of deloading, how about you do 4 sets of 4. 16 total reps compared to 15. And you continue to do 4x4 until you hit 3 reps on your first set. Then you switch the rep/set scheme of 5 sets of 3 reps (5x3). The totals reps are about the same for every variation, except 4x4 that has 16 total reps.
I wanted to hear people's feedback on this approach. I feel like volume is the main factor that drives progression.
