My mind wants to answer never to this question, but honestly my strength is borderline concerning me. It is not slowing down at all which I'm loving, but can my tendons really handle this at the moment? I pulled my chest last week(this is a recurring injury from a previous tear years ago), and it feels like it's healing fast, so I'll lighten it up on chest this week, but everything has skyrocketed. Last bench day I did 285 for 7. Today I squatted 380 for 6, and I'm fully expecting to get 400 next week.
If I hadn't pulled my chest i'd be benching 300 for at least 6 this week without a doubt. So when do I stop because my concern is getting an injury with strength increases like that. It is insane. I don't feel strained, and I can control the weight but it is freaking me out a little bit because for me that is a shit ton of weight. I know for some of you guys this is chump weight. Previous cycles in the past my strength would kinda cap out at around week 7-8 but it wasn't this drastic. I never really thought if I should stop myself before. When I started I'd be lucky to get 235 for 10 on bench and 325 on squat.
