Im going back to this routine. I dont know why but it seems I get the best growth from it. Let me know what you guys think.
The key to this is to go to absolute failure on your work set. For example on the bench press (incline or flat) you will do your first warm up set very light with an easy amount of reps that doesn’t make you work. Then your second warm up set you will pick a weight that you could do for 12 reps and only do 8. Then on your work set you will pick a weight that you think that you can only do 6 or 7. You should keep going until you cant move the bar, if that’s 6 reps or 20 don’t stop. Have a good spot and then have them help you get 1 or 2 forced reps. That’s it you are done with bench press. Keep track of the weight and the reps that you got. If you got 8 or more on that set the next time you press add some weight. Don’t do any more or any more often than this workout. At first you will feel like you are not doing enough, but once you get used to pushing that 1 work set past failure you will be hurting for days after each WO.
