    When you're no longer progressing due to a lack of volume (and not due to a lack of recovery).

    1. If you feel that you aren't hitting your body hard enough
    2. If you feel as if the volume of your workout isn't enough
    3. If you are no longer progressing

    Do not, however, add more sets if you're already having trouble recovering fully by your next workout.

    thanks a lot srs, i just feel indecisive before making a change sometimes. feels badman.

    i feel 2) and 3) apply to me, though i am making gains . so in conclusion i just gotta gauge whether or not what im currently doing is working and if its not then obviously add another set right?

    Yeah, it's more up to you to decide. You need to trust your "instincts", so to speak.

    Do you feel like you really need to add that extra set? Is it necessary?
