How many sets do you guys do for legs,back and chest?

 

[louden_swain]

Here is what I use:

9-12 for chest, back, and delts

15 for legs

6 for arms

6 for calves

3 for abs

 

[Cobin]

Damn, never seen it broken down like that before, I've read most people do 10 sets for arms, do you get good gains with your way? I would assume you do but just reassure me : )

 

[needsize]

6-8 for quads (thank god I dont need more)
9-12 for chest
arms 8-10
I combine back and shoulders into the same workout so it ends up a lot of sets

 

[Lord_Suston]

chest 9-10 sets not including warm-ups
back 9-10 sets
legs maybe 6-7
bis 3-6
tris 3-6
delts 6-8

I'm right with Lord Suston except for legs. Legs can benefit from higher volumes. On all the upper body stuff though, he's right on target.

 

[The Dude]

Me:
Back = 13-15 depending on how much dl work is involved
chest = 12
shoulders = 9, 12 including shrugs
quads = 10
hams (directly) = 7
calves = 8 with lots of drop sets (4 additional sets for tibialis)
arms = 7 ea.
abs = 6 twice during a 4 day split
