4-8 reps for large multijoint exercies(bench press, Squat, deads). 10-12 reps for smaller singlejoint isolation movements(tricep pushdown, leg extension) It's good to mix it up, for instance every 5-6 weeks or so doing sets of 20 reps on squats until you puke. | ||

I agree, I am always switching exercises-doing them in different orders etc. just to keep everything new. The body part I feel needs the most work, will get done twice a week. Right now it is my chest. Later. ------------------ | ||

AJC- that sounds a great programme, I'm gonna substitute mine for it starting tonight lol. Seriously - variety is the spice of life and it makes me grow. Constantly hit your body with different things and experiment. You'll soon work out what works for you and what does not. Make notes of your progress - this will save you so much time in perfecting your workout. | ||

I'm doing a Stuart McRobert-esque abbreviated routine. 20-rep squats, major movements, 2x a week. Eating a lot and drinking MRPs and N-Large 2. |
