Hello!
I usually do about 9 sets for large bodyparts, like back, legs and chest (3 exercises, 3 sets each) and then for calves 1 do only 3 sets, and smaller body parts lake triceps and biceps I do 6 sets (2 exercises, 3 sets each).
Is this ok? I´m wondering, because I´ve just read an article whose purpose is to make your biceps grow like hell, and it was like 8 sets overall (with many differente exercises), and then the final exercise was standing barbell curls, starting at 3 reps, then lowering the weight and doing 5 reps, and so on, until failure.
Isn´t this too much? I´ve read that overtraining can be worse than not training enough. Anyways, I could use some tricep/bicep growth!
thanx!
