New rule....if you can strict press it, you have no business PPing it.

lol... so i need to find new PP numbers then.

well... at least for the first few sets.

Whutta bout the warm up weights (begining sets) though? Gotta be lighter? But if my top set was heavier maybe I couldn't PP my lighter sets??

i dunno...

Yeah, you're gonna warm-up with weights you could strict press.....but use just as much force as you would with something 100lbs heavier.....prime your body and get in a good groove......there should be no way in hell you could strict press your final 2 or 3 sets , if you can, you need to put more weight on the bar....a PP is an explosive lift, you want to be forced to squat the bar off your back....and from BTN, you shouldn't even be able to budge the weight off your shoulders in strict style on your 'work sets'.
