Kind of a stupid question(sorry)

[badass_R1]

Do you have to lift heavy to get huge? If not can you guy's give me some ideas of the workout that you would try.

Thanks guy's

Most people will tell you that if you want to add muscle mass, you have to lift like so:
3-4 sets of 6-8 reps, with every set until failure.

This usually is what works for MOST, not all, people. However, unless your diet is in check, you wont get anywhere.

I think the secret to mass is to do 100 jumpingjacks between every set, then run around the gym flapping your arms three full times between exercises! You wont even need weights anymore!!!

Everyones different. some respond to high reps better. You must see what works for you.

You see the reason I ask, is because my shoulders are pretty fucked, and I want to still lift, and get big. But is this possible at light weights?

There's always synthol

If I couldn't lift heavy then I would go to the highest weight that I could do and use really slow, contolled movements.

For shoulders, go light. Lateral flyes, forward flyes.

heavy on rear delts, and dumbbells,

But I found shoulders to be the exception, I can go light and still grow, with great definition.

i dont really know what the situation is with your shoulders or how long youve been training ,but you could learn to train around your injuries. no flame , just a thought. you might even be able to pick exercises where you could still train fairly heavy.



peace

 

[vinnie]

yes!!!
you should be able to work around your injury.
is it your rotator cuff? if so, just eliminate the upward movement of arms above your shoulders. thats where the pain usually starts if im not mistaking. you should go lighter and if its not a permanent injury needing surgery, it will heal.

I don't know what the situation is with your shoulders but I fucked my at boxing an it was a bitch to lift any thing but I persivered, lifting the heavest I could before my shoulder was affected an used a slow controlled motion. I don't think it matters how heavy you lift as long as you do as many as possible!
