![]() ![]() ![]() What I really mean is how many sets and reps dp y'all perform? Is cutting up training pretty much the same with mass training? Also, how long do y'all rest between sets? I've sorta hit the wall lately and any advise will be greatly appreciated. Thanks! IP: Logged |

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() here is my schedule it has given me excellent results for three years so far. I cycle the rep ranges, and keep the exercises the same. I train with a 3 day split, 5 days per week, doesn't matter which two days you take off. Split: 1. Chest/Shoulders The cycle goes like this for each exercise done. Week 1 2sets/10-15reps/2min rest bet sets Then back to week 1 Works really well for me. Some like to do one bodypart per week, but it is not frequent enough for me, I lost size following such a routine. LP IP: Logged |

![]() ![]() ![]() One of the main things is whether or not you are using your muscles to do the work. You should have whatever muscle group you're working cramping and aching by the 8th rep in a 12 rep set. At that 8th rep, if you can keep on going, the muscle will grow. If you can't take the pain and stop, forget it. ------------------ IP: Logged |

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() When you hit a wall stop and think, "am I training hard enough, do I eat like I should, do I get enough sleep", then always stick to the basics. Keep it simple, strict, and heavy. That is the best thing I have learned in 6 years in the gym. As far as routines, what works for one might not work for others (depending on experience, age, genes, blah blah blah) IP: Logged |

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() OK, check this out. I've been working out for a long time and using for over ten years. When I train of course it's not going to be the same routine as when you train and to tell you the truth I don't even remember how I used to work out 15 years ago! But this is what I do now. I'm a shift worker and can't make it to the gym on a fixed schedule, but here's what I do.... Chest and Triceps Chest Triceps Back and Biceps Back Biceps Legs and Shoulders Legs Shoulders There are more things that I do and I basically do what ever I feel like doing on that particular day. This is just an example work out. I go to the gym every other day. ------------------ IP: Logged |
