I assume "low intensity" means more 50-60% 1RM effort with explosiveness in mind? Either way....eat alot!!!

I got rid of those comments, they were on the original template. I will be going heavy every session. I will look at 3 weeks then take a week off or just go light. Then re-evaluate it.
Thanks for the comments.
Sam
