Hey guys
Im just carious as to which training styles do you guys use.
I like High Volume
and you guys??
-
to tell you the truth, i use both. it seems tha my legs get bigger with less sets the my upper body.
-
HIGH Weight
High(er) INTENSITY
LOW volume.
Get a PUMP, forming
PAIN in the muscle belly,
then NUMBNESS,
I am done.
I'd forgoe the high volume and
SAVE SOME FOR RECOVERY
the following days. . .

hey davie, how come your do more sets for you forearms then arms?? it should be the other way around.
-
It was meant to 9 sets for forearms, they are a really sucky body part that hasnt developed that well even tho u use them all teh time.
I do 3 sets at end of each session of wrist curls or reverse curls,i think its slowly working.
OH and the sets i do for forearms arnt as intense or hard as arm sets. The sets of wrist curls etc r more of a finisher for forearms.

Pretty much for me to, although I have a frame of what exercises , and number of sets going in- I do better with structure - but THAT IS FOR ME PERSNALLY- my personality structure, if you like to" create" do that while stil busting a gut on EVERY exercise- post warmup. Works for me, I'm 243 (at6'3"),
6 weeks out from my third competition.

So 'intenceman' wat is ur set rep scheme?

Moderate sets with high intensity; 6 sets on smaller muscles, 9-10 sets on larger. More frequent training.
Used to do more volume but have concluded that moderate sets with more intensity is as good unless cutting.
