they look the same because they never push themselves, not because they are training in the 8-12 rep range.


its common knowledge and established fact that using a weight in which you reach failure between 8-12 is the best amount of weight to use in order to grow muscles as big as possible.heavy weights are absolutely necessary, however heavy weights within that rep range and while keeping all the tension and work on the target muscle. 
That is what I have done over the years and what have given me the best results. No doubt, that range/weight is what hypertrophy is all about.

LOL... yeah, in theory, that 8 to 12 rep stuff with loads of chicken and rice is the gameplan.

In most gyms, the biggest and fattest strongest guys permabulkers are lifting dogshit heavy and eating all the double cheeseburgers they can get their hands on.

Corrected.

Maybe you are more suited to something where you don't have to deadlift, squat, bench press, bicep curl, shoulder press ??

Also why do you only have to use one rep range?

Why not train the muscle with a high rep and low rep day?

Your posts, though I often disagree, are usually sober, measured, well thought out, and articulate. I sense anger and rage. Did someone hurt you? Who hurt you?

Again, train within your genetic limits. Challenge yourself and remember to train for you... and only you!

But for Christ f##king sake, never take advice from these drug addicted Pro's who consistently say to 'train heavy and eat big!'

Yes, these retarded insecure-drug-user- Pro's speak only from their pharmaceutical perch.  They have as much credibility as the 'speed-users', who try to lecture people on the secrets of high-energy health regimes....

Never forget, a Pro= drug cheat; he has shrunken balls and doesn't have the drive nor motivation to train chemical free (for health and self satisfaction)!

really?  I very very rarely ever do more than 6 to 8 reps with as heavy as I can go.  I do FULL reps and anyone who has lifted with me or seen me knows this.  I never once got hurt lifting heavy in more than 30 years.  I blew out my L4 and L5 squatting with 315 and I had a minor pec tear warming up with 225.  First who the fuck are you.  Do you even lift.  You have not once proved you even lift.  All you do is talk.  Don't give advice on shit you know nothing about.  All you do is talk shit with nothing to back it up.  Now call me fat and whatever else but the facts are I have lifted and I have lifted very heavy.  yo on the other hand can't prove nothing.  So shut up and sit back and learn dipshit you are a joke

Keith, you are hardly the authority to comment on developing an envious physique! Look at you, look at what you represent!

Even those photos of you in your so-called prime, show a hideously bloated piece-of-shit with bitch tits, pregnant belly and massive bowling-ball-head!

You bring nothing to the table in terms of health and fitness.  You have lived the life of gluttony and excess!

So shut your mouth fatman and go back to your porn and photo-shopping penises.

Your type repulse me.  You are a failed promoter and business man who blames everyone but yourself for your misery!

 Yes Keith, your only relief is finding your dick with a magnifying glass and then using tweezers to try and blow a load!

Keith, when you are 'called out' for your morbid obesity, pathlogical obsession with pornography and your failed businesses, you predictably and uncreatively attempt to 'turn the tables'.

Why do you do this you illiterate f#ck?

Yes Keith, your responses are so f#cking predictable. Maybe it is time to try a new approach? 

Maybe it is time to acknowledge your grotesque physicality, insidious porn addiction and the fact that all your problems are of your own making!

Keith, it is time to embrace what little life you may have left!  Deal with your fatty liver, plaque filled arteries, diabetes, diseased pornographic mind, fatty liver and those weeping-sores from sitting on your ass too long!

Vince doesn't know shit about hypertrophy. Vince was in shape, if you want to call it that, for about thirty seconds after

swallowing a handfull of dbol. Vince has spent more time in the gym "eyeing" men in the squat rack then he has actually spent

lifting. Vince is nothing more than a fat useless lonely bastard who has a sexual fascination towards Vince Goodrum which makes him

stalk Vince. Basile is known to have an attraction for girls and boys of a questionable age. He is a sick fuck who doesn't have

anything anybody should want to hear on this site. Vince is at the age where he is approaching deaths door, and I will be happy

to see him enter.

I don't consider maxing out on a lift stroking my ego. It's about pushing myself to the absolute limit and that's what people who have no interest in real strength training will ever understand. These threads comparing bodybuilding and strength training never go anywhere because the majority of people who post here don't have a fucking clue.

I agree with this.

I wished I had learned  strength training techniques  10 years ago.  I wouldn't have wasted my time with useless BB isolation exercises, leg presses, etc.

1-2 reps lifts, overloading on partials, etc... are all great ways to improve performance outside the gym.  You just have to learn to cycle them and warm up properly.

heavy is less than 6 reps and based on the guys i see in my gym who always bench for 1 - 4 reps, I'd say yeah lifting heavy isn't ideal if you want bigger muscles

some of these guys look like they would struggle to bench 225 but they do 315 for 1 or 2 reps

also the leg press, the guys that use about 10 plates a side for 4 or 5 reps don't have legs as good as the guys who use 5 plates for 12 reps
