Sets and Reps When on....

[stimpy]

Here's a good question for you all. I usually do 3 sets of 6 and 3 exercises per bodypart once a week. I have always stayed with that routine when on a cycle. We all know that the human body recovers faster when you are on a cycle, so does that mean you could get more out of your gear by doing more reps, exercises, or increasing the frequency that you train each bodypart? Post your experiences with different routines when on....


Thanks Bros!

When on, I train each bodypart more frequently (less days rest between) and I also go up in weight some - DO NOT start lifting as heavy as you can because your muscles will grow, but your tendons, ligaments, joints, etc will not grow as your muscles did. You will very likely create an injury that way.
I may also add an exercise or two at the end but really don't go up in reps.
-That's how I do it.

when on i can work each bodypart twice a week. but when i'm not on the juice, i dont recover fast enough. 4 days to recover when not on, 2 days to recover when on. at leats on me, everyone's different.

first of all that 3 exercises 3 sets 6 reps bullshit aint gonna give any size, weight, mass, hardness, shape, or symmetry at all, you got to be a fuckin insane freak, each workout should contain heavy sets, cheat sets, supersets, rep sets, giant sets, negative reps all in one training day, an advanced trainer should be doing atleast 20-25 sets per body part and I say 9 diff exercises for each body part..............a fuckin awesome crazy physique doesnt happen with that lame 4 sets 12 reps shit, you got to fuckin kill it with mad intensity and fuckin make the fuckin gym fall down with your workout!!!!!!!!!1

I am with CN1 on this. The only way to do it is all out. With that same routine over and over again, it seems like you would hit a plateau real quick. For example, i do 11 exercises for back, 4 sets each, reps 10-8-8-6. When you are on gear, leave everthing you got in the gym. The accelerated recovery will take care of it. Just drop the intensity a bit when coming off.

yeah and thats another thing, you always hear guys saying, ohh you should switch your workout up to shock your muscles or they wont respond to the same thing, thats bullshit..........well for people who say this dont understand the true meanings of bbing and what their body responds too, once you find the right combination and training formula that makes you grow and you never change it, that is the key, just like ronnie coleman said, the less I chang my routine, the more I grow, that means once you find the right formula and routine the more your body is going to respond and grow!!!!

I do 3 exercises for large bodyparts and 2 for small, 4 sets, 6-9 reps, last 2-3 are assisted, basically trying to go heavier constantly, while on. Fina and Test helps a lot, looking forward to try Halo..
For legs, 5-6 exercises, 4-5 sets, 15-20 reps, and a lot for abs.

When off, I'm just trying to maintaine, and use much lighter weights, but increase number of exercises, sets and reps.
