5% theory = each proceeding week increase the weight used by 5% for one less rep, however upon week 4 decrease week 3s weight by 5% and do 6 reps. I.e week 1 100 kilos for 4 sets of 6, week 2 105 kilos for 4 sets of 5 , week 3 110.5 kilos for 4 sets of 4 ,week 4 105 kilos for 6 reps. because reps and weight always change it is hard to plateau!
