I should also add that you never just be repeating the same exact weight and rep ct scheme. If you dont constantly change it up, your muscle memory kicks in and you plateau, or backslide.

Check stronglifts 5x5, 3-2-1 etc.

12 rep sets means ur at approximately 55 to60% of ur 1 rep max, which means ur conducting an anaerobic workout that isnt conducive to strength training or building muscle mass. Plus im focusing on the eccentric when its in the higher rep ranges. Higher rep count, given that ur failure rep is no higher than rep 16, is good for hypertrophy or sculpting so this month im starting sets in that range pyramidding up to fast twitch sets that are conducive to strengrh training and mass building.

Look at marathon runners physique, theyre doing leg exercises in a nigh unlimited rep count thereby performing anaerobic exercise. Do they look like they have massive legs? Or well defined beanpoles for legs?

Cycling causes erectile dysfunction. Also, you’ve admitted to attending a Flo Rida concert in your 40s. Finally, Jeff gets more pussy than you

Hope this helps!

TODAY was pull day, boys. Cranked out 7 chinups and 68 curls at a 1x4 tempo. Breaking fast now with beef, veg and a handful each of cherry tomatoes and BLACKberries.

NAP TIME!
