You are correct on the 8-10 reps with some compound exercises likely not having failure due to local nervous fatigue. However, this would also be based on the lifters experience. In general, most...

As with everything else bodybuilding, the following is speculation in the bodybuilding community. The idea (as far as I know) originated from Chris Beardall. However, I would say it would be agreed...

Glad you read the entire statement and the entire post.

I have 3 "main workouts" that are full body workouts. They consist of 20-35ish sets each. Usually starting a meso on the lower end of 20ish and working up to 35ish. The 15ish set variation is an...

Rest time was 3 minutes. This happened to me especially when doing larger exercises that included a higher fast twitch composition. One that comes to mind where I lose the most when going to failure...

Not to ruffle feathers, but to shed light...

"The Research" - This one is still difficult to identify. There is research on both ends of this. A lot of research simply has not researched reps in...

Love mine. 1 thing I have to say when using them is that you should always focus on lifting the hips, not your feet or legs.

Best Exercise: My buddy and I started doing heels to the heavens...

Switch to the alternating grip, but lower the weight about 20% and work your weight back up over 6-8 workouts. With double overhand your grip will eventually be your weakness, no matter your grip...

This conversation is funny. When it comes to any exercise, routine, diet...what-have-you, there will always be many points of view. The problem is that they are probably all wrong and based off of...

watch the video yourself. I know you are flexing your glutes, but you are also hyperextending. Try the following, you will see what I mean:
1. grab a broom stick like you grab the bar.
2. Stand...

1. Don't hyperextend at the top.
2. Keep a neutral back throughout. What I mean by this is that you should not push your butt out so far out. Focus more on flexing your lats and this will keep...

Do antagonist exercises (Bench press and barbell bent over rows) first off. Second, do 10 sets for each exercise with 10 seconds in between. Rest 90 seconds, and go again.

As a general rule of thumb, if you have been workout out for 8 months you should most likely do an A/B split.
0-12 months (or so): full body
13-24 months: A/B or at most A/B/C
24+: Do what works...

For your assistance work you need to consider the TUT/Tempo. Also, you may want to spread the deadlifts and squats apart a bit. Finally, working out 6 days a week will be rough. Your body should...

First, 8-12 is considered best for hypertrophy, that is given a tempo of 30x0 and 40x0 (4-5 second reps). You are looking for the time to be between 40 and 70 seconds. Now, the problem with this is...

Might work out for you. Why the 5 rep range though? I am not asking because it is "wrong". I ask because you should have a reason for sticking with a single range. Some ideas you may need to...

A lot of questions come to mind when you ask this.
First, you said you have been lifting almost 2 years, has this been consistent?

Second, what variables have you previously manipulated, if...

Go see a doctor about the knee. This is the last place to ask for recommendations on what to do when dealing with an injury.ust don't go to one that will simply have you take a bunch of drugs. Find...

I would hate to sound like the turd in your punch-bowl, but this is not a workout, it is a list of exercises you plan on doing... Do what you want if it makes you feel good. Do not expect a lot of...

First:Your shoulders will probably get injured with this routine. At the very least you should have a 1:1 ratio for pulls and pushes, at most you should do 3 pulls for every 1 push.

Second:...
