really is a piontless poll, because everyone has a different body. Some migth trigger hypertrophy with 5 reps others with 12. That why they abondoned the studies on this at the sports section of my med school, results were very differemt for each person.

Since you missed the point
This is an opinion poll. Various people out there have quite definite opinions on the amount of reps that you, or they, should do for mass.Originally posted by Oxandralone

I was keen to see what the prevailing opinion is, not perform medical research!The science is out there!
