Comp max vs Training max

[Dan Murphy]

#14395

What are everyone’s thoughts on using a training max (90-95% of comp max) instead of a true comp max for the percentages in training?

My comp maxes are all heavier then anything I’ve done in training and some of the percentages are pretty heavy if I base it off of comp max.

Or should I just use the comp max but be flexible and adhere to the RPE?

For our purpose you can use a training max if you like, but we prefer using your actual comp max.
