5 x 7 @ (up to) 65% 1 x max rep @ 50%, each with a stopped, hard 3/1000 @ top Rest as needed between sets. If a set requires interruption, make as minor a weight adjustment as possible prior to the next. When scheme is listed as “5 x 7″, it always refers to “Sets” x “Reps”.

Any mechanical break or positional inconsistency ends a max-rep set; Any day- but especially on a Saturday.
