Q and A with John Jewett

[JohnJewett]

Looking forward to it.
I always want to do something similar but I end up dropping the ball because I have so much shit in real life to deal with. Fucking reality...

Man I totally understand, these things are very time consuming. I choose to work 7 days per week and stay up late to get it done. I'm committed to it, so im going to make it happen. It would be cool to see you do one, I would watch for sure.

well... that´s a word. If you´re going to be watching I might have to reconsider my view on this topic.

John, I always watch your videos and I am wondering what you mean when you say "ramp up in weight to your top set"?

How do you go up in weight from set to set? Do you stay with the same rep range as for your work sets or do you ramp up at the low end to save energy?

Let`s say I incline bench with the 100s for 10 reps. Would you do:

20 x 5
40 x 5
60 x 5
80 x 5
100 x work sets

Or

20 x 10
40 x 10
60 x 10
80 x 10
100 x work sets

Thanks in advance and keep up doing all this great stuff.

So if 100lb dumbells are my work set I would likely only do 3 warm up sets

40x15
60x10
80x6
100xfailure

Don't you feel that you expend too much energy with higher rep warm up sets? Can this not be accomplished with let say 5-7 reps? I'm in my 60's and for me, warming up is not optional but when I start using these higher rep warm up sets it seems to pre exhaust me for my actual working sets.
