Great points! I do like the idea , as well as the practical implication , of top sets and back down sets. I believe they are great, if they are used correctly! However, I would probably not have them in the program all the time, and use them more to achieve a specific out come, e.g. combining max strength & hypertrophy with the main focus on max strength (back down sets), and vice versa, using top sets when working on hypertrophy, and maintaining strength levels. Just my thought processes 😊
