I'm considering using singles or triples for this routine. Any comments?
Sounds like you might hit CNS fatigue pretty quickly, depending on how close to your 1RM you start. I'd get enough sleep each night, too. 1RM sets are hard to do if you're not feeling aweosme that day. Keep us posted, tho.
If I were doing it I would start well below my 1RM, or maybe do a two week cycle of PTP first, take 3-5 days off, and THEN do what you suggested.
