You don't understand the principles. You CAN do that, but it doesn't make sense.

Lacking in what, strength or size? Remember, this is for powerlifters... the hypertrophy that occurs is sort of a byproduct.

If you're lacking in size, then train with higher volume. Instead of working up to a 1RM, work up to a 3-5RM on ME days, and/or instead of DE work, substitute that for a Volume day instead (which is what I do usually). If you're lacking in strength, still do the ME/DE work the same.
