High reps or low reps while juicing?

Just wondering, what would be a better route to take when juicing, would I see more results from doing high reps and just blowing out what I have (hypertrophy)or lift heavy and actually add more muscle (hyperplasia)? Or a mix of both?

ALSO: How many days a week should i lift when i start this? (I'm starting in a few weeks I'm all excited). Should I just hit each group once a week or twice?

Cardio or no? Want to do a test/winny/fina bulk cycle.

I think a mix of both ....for example , on chest days - do like 2-3 exercises with low reps heavy weight and 2 exercises with high reps and low weight ....I think this is the best way to grow, this is the best way to stimulate your muscles ...well , I think so .....

Also the best routine IMO is to do 1 body part per day ...like monday - chest , thusday - back , wednesday - legs ...and so on ....

AND do cardio 3 x a week on empty stomach for 30 mim , you will not lose any muscle mass doing this ....


well , my 0.2 :)

Well i would stick with Low heavy reps for the core of your workout but also incorporate high reps to that way you're working the slow+fast twitch muscle fibers.
 
i start the cycle the first week hitting 10 reps then the next time Im in to 8 with a little heavier weight then to six on the third week, and try to stay with 6 reps and up the weight a little each week, fighting my a** off for six, this makes me grow, later
 
as far as your sets question I do anywhere from 9-12 sets a body part. If I hit one muscle that day usually 12 sets, if two muscles are being worked, 9 sets of each muscle at a total of 18sets that day. This may be little for some but for me it makes me grow just fine.
 
12 sets bro ??

damm I must be crazy ....I do like 20 - 25 .....I only train one body part / day

well, if you are trying to keep your gains after your done juicing, the best bet would be to do very high reps in the 15-18 range while on juice, and in the 8-12 range when off. this is a trick dan duchaine reccommended. you won't get as strong as you would doing low reps on juice, but gains will be easier to maintain.
