Yeah so what do you prefer and why?

I personally like to mix it up depending on the exercise/how I'm feeling.

dont feel comfortable walking away knowing i could have got more reps out

i prefer to see progress in way of weigh increase than rep increase.

e.g. for me i prefer to go from lifting 90kg bench for 4-6 to lifting 100kg for 4-6

than lifting 70kg for 8-10 to lifting 80kg for 8-10 or even say like lifting

80kg for 6 to then being able to do for 10 reps.

i cycle weights. start at 65-70% 1rm then add 2.5-5kg a week depending on exercise, peak at 1-3 reps. then reset

Posted

I do 30kg (light i know, but kinda heavy for me lmao) x12.

I could do 45x6, but i dunno why i dont.

i like seeing how heavy i can lift, even if it's minimal reps. just to see.

Pixie lott.

But heavy weights less reps.

i prefer getting the desired gains rather than w.e fun i get out of lifting the weights as i please.

so i lift in the rep ratio that is most beneficial.

u go light.. u did 5 str8 sets of 10 today, that screams light.

w.e u enjoy more ur not gunna stick to anything if you dont enjoy it, know that. im in between i like seeing me add wait onto exercises than do the same reps if not 1 less than lets say 20 lbs more weight.

Generally 8-12 most weeks, sometimes 5-8 on heavier weeks.

hmm actually think it depends on the exercise, try to keep form regardless... not 1 of these mugs who throws form out of the window to look like you can lift big

Posted

the only exercises that i go for heavy weights/less reps are bench/deadlift/squats

stuff like fly's, curls, dumbell press etc i aim for 10-12 with a little lower in the weight rather then 6 with a heavier
