Predominantly Fast twitch? Or low lactic Acid threshold?

bump!

Why don't you try training in the 6+ rep range for a few months and then test the flip side of this theory?

If you come back and can't handle the really heavy weights for <6 anymore but you are using 80% + of your max for serious sets of 6+ then it would most likely be the adaptation.

But in the case of the other then you have found out that your biceps are predominantly fast twitch.

I kind of am... I'm now doing Animal Masses DFHT training (see sticky at the top of the board) and there are all sorts of different rep schemes...

If I was to do strictly 6+ reps on bis for the next 6 months it would be bad for a couple of reasons... Fast twitch fibres are larger than slow twitch fibres.. so If i eliminate a lot of my fast twitch work my arms will most likely grow less...
Also, it will totally screw up my new training since it is based on periodization...

Thanks for the input though
