To give you some context, I was feeling strong on that day, had a good night’s sleep, and took long rests between sets, used 2.5lb micro loading, but my CNS was fried after the 2nd set. Could the heavy squats I did before be the culprit?
Should I continue to increase the weight as long as I complete all 15reps?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
