FWIW as a rank novice that seems right to me. However, what do you do when reaching the outer limits of your strength at say 225 ? Would you then add assistance type exercises, or continue trying for 5 or 10lbs ? It's such a massive weight to even consider at my age, strength and experience it's beyond contemplation. I'd be more than happy if I could one day press 130 and even that seems a million light years away.
