Beyond 2 Reps
Extended HIHRWT

What follows are real-life heart rate measurements, taking the baseline 2-rep HIHRWT to more reps.  This leads to more inroads to the fast-twitch and larger motor units. I have been using seven days for recovery and repair -- I probably need more.

The heart rate (HR) below indicates 5 minutes and 28 seconds of a continuous set. 225 LBS is a 13RM for me on the Hoist bench press, 8/2/2022.

76 beats per minute (BPM) starting heart rate. Total BPM increase for this bench press set is 58.

Total set time: 5:28.

This is measured heart BPM to Total Muscle Failure (TMF)  for a 10 rep max (10RM)  bench press, Hoist: 245 lbs, HR delta: 29 BPM. Total set time is: 32 seconds.
