IcedDante said:Adriano- you must mean sPL PE4 iM, right? I started off doing 5 reps per leg as well. Fortunately I realized it was 10 reps per leg early in the process and started working up to it. Not easy.
What? 
Edited.
Yeah, definitely not easy. In fact, to me the real exercise is the iM...
I have the original version of F1 (the one that could be downloaded and saved to one's computer), and all it says for sPL/PE4>iM is "10r after each work set".
Based on the discussions in the links I pasted below, I always took this to mean that this meant 5 reps per leg as the movement consisted of alternating legs like with skiers, and cossacks.

This appears to have changed however, and it's hard to know whether this is a type-o (which has happened before) or a clarification for our benefit.
Has anyone PM'd Cory? If not, I'd be happy to do so myself. I just don't want to overwhelm his mailbox with the same question. It may also be worthwhile getting an email notification whenever a correction is made to the program as I'm assuming most of us are not in the habit of going back and re-examining the instructions for the movements we've already mastered.
I'm doing 10 per leg on this 1. A brutal Im that's for sure.
Guys it still says 10reps not 10 reps per side. So that would be 10 total reps 5 each side
Ha ha! Cory must have gotten word and corrected the error; it was clearly 10 reps per leg a few days ago.
I'm glad I don't have to go back and re-test. I'd warn Adriano, but I suspect he's already mastered the more difficult version by now 
I believe Cory must have corrected it. He replied to me yesterday with this:

You're right, this looks like it got unintentionally changed. Of course you can do 10 per leg anyways if you want.
10 reps per side just means more rest 
Wow... I actually worked up to 10 reps on each leg. But you know what: I regret nothing!
Me neither. Now 10 reps seems like a real rest compared to 20 reps. Even thought, from time to time I'll keep doing 20 reps just for the sake of the fire on my lower back/glutes.
I almost wish it was 10 per leg... Could use that extra rest time and I like the effect this stuff is having on my bum
