I have been able to complete 5x36. Last set is a struggle, but form is maintained. However, when I attempted to move on to 4x48, I could get the first, the second with great effort, but nowhere close on Sets 3 and 4.
I am trying to decide whether or not to use steady state on 36 seconds, or whether I should try a smaller interval of increase, such as 4X38 seconds.
Any thoughts?
A smaller increase could work well for you. 12s jumps can be pretty intense. Maybe go for 6s jumps following the same pattern?
I would suggest to use a smaller interval increment and read the strategy that Zach explain at this post:https://www.gymnasticbodies.com/forum/topic/19427-my-current-focus-hbppe2/page-5
It said that when you're stuck you should add in your off days a 50% sets and reps. So in your case it would be like maybe 2-3x18.
Smaller steps.
Alternatively, if you got say 48, 3*36, you might continue in that vein and work on trying to nail 2*48, 2*36.
