But RPE makes this all much less hard and the perception metrics backing it up are unassailable.
Truth!
Jim Steel is awesome. Just his name alone motivates me to get/stay in the gym and lift stuff. Jim sounds like he would give Chuck Norris a run for his money.
I really enjoy Steels articles posted here and his site. Always a no nonsense hard working approach. The older I get the more I appreciate that. Everytime I read something from Steel I feel I need to immediately get under the bar and move some heavy weight.
Athletes would be lucky to have a coach like him.
