BTW, the routine by NTN is a great strength training periodization cycle. Start with 12 reps at 70% of your 1 rep max. Next week go to 10 reps at 75%. Next, 8 at 80%. Then 7 at 85%, 5 at 90%, 3 at 95%, 2 at 100%. Or something similar to that.

If you want a link to a similar program, here it is: 8 Week Cycle. Go to the Jackal's Gym 8 week program.
