Yes, if anything it helps me know how much to lift depending on the situation

I log my lifts but don't actually look back or dwell on it for long. I just use it as a way to see how much more I need to lift.

This.

I PLAN my lifts. I decide I;m going to do two more reps then yesterday, until a certain point I increase the weight from 2.5 to 5lbs.

I memorize my lifts in the head and it's just it, I try to work on % in the overall just for fun and see if I can work up to X/2/3/4

Bench Press: 5%+ Every time I can perform 3x5 with a little grind then I try to repeat until it starts to fail. I'm at 74kg, so I will readjust to something more reliable until I reach 2pl8 because micro pl8s don't exist here in brazil

Squat: Same as the Bench, but I don't accept grinding or failing, you can always push a little more in the back squat but I'm the zercher annoying dudebro, it helps to keep my shit together and avoid injuries

Overhead Press: 4%~5%

Deadlift: 6~8% and I'm trying to do singles instead of full sets, it helps with strength in my case and after that I remove 20% and I finish my usual 3x3

Should i make a day for 1rpms? I rarely do them on a workout day

if you're a powerlifter I suggest but if not and you have a decent spotter or want to know your max in the big 4, then I highly recommend.

What do you mean?

If you are a powerlifter -> Find your 1rm

If you are not a powerlifter but you have a spotter and just want to know what they are -> Find your 1rm

I log all my exercise on a simple memo pad and plug the information into my fitocracy.com account.

I log all my lifts, it helps me from program hopping too much
