..This week is a "down week" for all lifts, which means I use the lower percentage in my wave and cap all reps at 5 instead of doing an AMRAP set. Having this week rotate in every 3 weeks helps me to keep momentum going and keep from overtraining without dropping the weights too low or doing a formal "deload". This has worked well for me, and on these weeks I really focus on moving with as much speed and controlled aggression as possible. I think when you have weeks that you aren't going for any sort of PR or rep record, it's that much more important to train intentionally.
