Cluster sets are always something that, when done properly, can get you a massive pump and some really good work in. As any other means of training, these sets, in particular, can bite you in the ass real quick. What you think you can do throughout the total amount of clusters is very skewed until you are balls deep in about your second or third and by then it is too late, you have already chosen the weight and you are either going to finish or be a little B**** and fail, this is how 275 had me looking...
