Got this bit of advice today from the strongest woman I know:

Quote:
Just stay focused and do the lift. Use the time in between to rest and then get psyched up for the next attempt.
Apparently you need to wait 'long' enough. But then the problem is:

How can you stay focused while waiting so long for the next lift? That's also why supersets help me.. viz in the 'stay focused' part. I'll try to get angry next time I want to PR ! Since that, plus the fear of getting 'cold' muscles, keeps me from doing straight sets. Most exercises I do are done as slow supersets.
