How Often Should U Max Out????

[bombersfootball]

how often?

[Gibblets]

never, its a good way to get hurt and does nothing for you progress wise.

[SuperKid]

every few months I think

[Gibblets]

no, never. its a good way to get hurt, and you get nothing out of it. if you are being strength tested, go ahead. but if getting bigger and stronger is your goal and you're mature enough to handle not being able to answer "yo how much u bench?", then there is no reason to max out.

[futballman]

did it ever occur to you guys that maybe some people workout for strength too?

i max about once every 3-4 months

[howard600]

ive coached teens in power lifting and the only time we did maxes was on the day of the meet . in bodybuilding keep your reps between 6 and 10

I usualy max out on certain excersises every 2 months or so just out of curiasity of what I can lift.

[b0y WoNdEr]

i max out every 3 months

[AYung]

You should max out every 8 weeks or longer. That, or never.

[aiwass]

I used to max three times a week...

[RipStone]

I have been lifting seriosuly for a year and I have never found my 1RM. I don't see the point in it...I really don't care to tell some random person, "Oh, I can bench XXX". I rather just spend my time in the gym working on my rotuine.

I max out 1 time a week, it really helps me out strenth wise, I do the pyrmid routine were you start at 10 reps then 8 then 6 then 4 then 2 then your max
