Spritcha on Training

Spritcha,

- From 180/100/180 to 200x3/120x3/200x3, how was the training intensity? How often would you work up > 85%? I notice during this period the volume is pretty high
- In your early days, how did you control intensity? Would you precalculate weights or would you just hit the gym and load the bar up?
- What about progression, would you up the weight of the top set if you felt like you could do it or otherwise?

Awesome numbers...daunting dedication...I can imagine your food bill is pretty high too!!

Inspiring stuff.
 
- How long did your workouts usually take?
- In retrospect, would you do anything differently? If so, what and how?

Sorry about all the questions, not often do you get the opportunity to pick the brains of a pro.
 
Thanks, much appreciated.

Last question (I swear ). I notice you bench 3x/week, have you ever had any shoulder issues/problems? Any training tips to eliminate/minimise shoulder injury/stress?
 

Ideally people on the conjugate method should base their set and rep ranges on prilepin's chart but at a higher percentile, as this is what Louie and his guys go off or at least say they do.

What's quite interesting is that when using sheiko templates, you will find that when using http://ambesc.com/lifting/prelipins.pdf the formula in that file that sheiko workouts seem to be fairly closely based on the chart, but with a slight tendency to be a bit more brutal.
 
Pritchard, What have you changed in relation to your Deadlift Grip & training, etc (other than the double overhand) since the Bi injury & what would you suggest to avoid it?
