Benchpressing what do you suggest?

[EchoXee]

Hello guys!

I wonder what's better, benchpressing 4 sets, 10 reps with 80 kilos, or benchpressing 6 sets, 4 reps with 110 kilos? What do you suggest? Thank you!

[JSNeves]

Work up to a top set of 4-6 reps, then drop the weight and do 3-5 sets of 8-12 reps

no need to stick to one specific set/rep scheme for all your work, use several for each movement plan throughout the week

Both can be effective. Do the 6 x 4 reps with 110 kg as your heavy workout of the week. The 3-4 days later follow up with 4 x 10 reps with 80 kg as your lighter higher volume workout.

Personally, I think the latter will be better. It's heavier and if you calculate the total volume, they're very similar.

it depends on what you are trying to do. if your looking to add muscle the 6x4x110 is going to be the best if your looking to be toned the first one is what you wanna do. all depends on what your intent is

5 years of lifting and you weigh 140 lbs? Sunglasses and sideways cap?

Anyway, 10 reps is better for hypertrophy than 4 reps. With 4 reps the main focus is strength training, which is important too, obviously. That's why I would suggest doing both and not limiting yourself. Pyramid your sets, or alternate on work out days. Whatever you prefer, really.

One total volume is 3200, the other is 2640. Youre calling a 20-25% difference 'similiar'?

[ThickAsABrick]

The important thing is that we all try to answer this unanswerable question.
