i do like 8 - 10 heavy sets for chest, triceps, shoulders, calves, and back 10 - 12 for quads, hams, and 4 - 8 for traps and bi's
i have always trained like this i guess and i'm a pretty big guy but a buddy of mine has put on more in the last several moinths than i have b'c he has increased his number of heavy sets is this cool or should i just stick with what i'm doing do as to not overtrain?

It might just be that your body has adjusted to your routine, and its probaly time to change your routine up. Do 12-15 sets for your big muscle groups chest, back, legs, and 10 sets for your smaller tris, bis, so on. Go heavy 5-10 reps just make sure you consume enough protein and take in a lot of cals.

To many sets for triceps .Your heavy work for your triceps gets done with chest and shoulders 4-6 sets is plenty. But you need to post more info.
