Volume

Thremp · #1 04-27-2007, 10:19 PM

In an effort to provide a discussion topic. How do most people divide up the amount of volume the do? Obv it should be cycled which is pretty apparent, but where do you set the high volume bar?

I personally don't think more than ~70 reps or so when doing a typical high intensity workout should be performed. Obviously if doing low intensity workouts (tabata etc) this doesn't apply. I think you can still adjust the 10 set rule for most things by flipping some of the new age rep/set rules around or moving to just work calculations. How does everyone else do their, or what they think?

(Jah7 please don't "contribute". Nor anyone who wants to talk about 20 sets per bodypart or gauging work capacity while they try to achieve a pump. I wanna keep this discussion purely to standard group think individuals.)

No need for discussion, a simple article link could deal with 95% of the people on here right?

I think you both should just whip out your penises and compare them, and quit yer bitchin about each other.

Then we get into the classic "does stretching out the foreskin count?" debate.

I think it does by the way.

If either is circumised, I think this strategy should be outlawed. If both are uncut, then it is fair play. Agree/Disagree?

I'm circumcised, but I didn't have a choice in the matter, what now!

Seriously, all I ever have tried to do in this area of the forum is help other people out. I shouldn't have let someone antagonizing me or berating others get in the way of doing that, it has just distracted me from trying to help or have discussions.
