MVO2 Session 6

15:15 MVO2 protocol:
16kg x 8 reps x 34 sets
RPE (Rate of Perceived Exertion) = 18

Right on the money. Took a little credit though!

From here onward...
Mathematical percentage of volume per MVO2 session:
+50% = 46-50 sets - End of Week 3
-20% = 36-40 sets
+15% = 42-46 sets
+15% = 48-52 sets - End of Week 4
-20% = 38-42 sets
+50% = 58-64 sets - End of Week 5
-20% = 46-52 sets
+15% = 54-58 sets
+15% = 62-68 sets - End of Week 6
-20% = 50-54 sets
+50% = 74-82 sets - End of Week 7
If continuing on the lower values:
-20% = 60 sets
+15% = 68 sets
+15% = 78 sets - End of Week 8 (Why not go for 80 here, eh?)
-20% = 62 sets
+50% = 94 sets - End of Week 9 (Yeah, right!)

Begining from Session #1 of 30 sets, this about a 13% to 18% average volume gain per week of 2.5 sessions to reach at least 80 sets. This is my best estimate of what I can accomplish by giving me a liberal window. If I don't succeed within this program, I'll go to plan B (Back-off and continue to gauge by a 17-18 on the Borg scale). We'll see how much of a persistent nerd I really am!
