LP with implemented exercise progression

[zar9star]

Anyone tried something like this?
Start off with something like a closegrip paused bench press for lets say 3x5 with 3 min rest between sets. LP as long as possible without any changes. Every time you approach a stall, you change a factor and keep progressing. You end that cycle when you stall on the tng bench press with a belt, a regular grip width, 8 min rest between sets and 5RM + 2x5 @95% instead of 3x5 across.

Now, whats the point? Well after I got sick and had to take a week off I tried to jump back in with 5lbs less than where I stopped and I kept failing for 5 workouts in a row. So I decided that it's necessary to take a reset anyway. Why would I waste the 3 weeks until I reach my previous PR without getting stronger? I didn't. Now I worked up with the "hardest possible bench variation" to my previous regular bench weight and the LP is going easy. In case I stall, I have like an extra 30 lbs of LP left because of the modifications. Thoughts?

I think you should just do the program, because it works so well. Whenever a question comes in, bare in mind Occam's Razor and simplify as much as possible, but no more than if effectiveness is lost.
