hitting a brick wall.

[fullypaully]

My goal in training is to add as much size to my frame as i can but i believe i need to change up my training a little because im body is use to the same exercises and isnt growing as fast as it use to...currnetly my training looks something like this..

chest/tris

Back

Shoulders/bi's

"lm not going to add legs in because they arnt bothering me"


for chest, back and shoulders l'll do 4 exercises for that muscle when i am training them and with tri's and bi's l'll do about 2-3 exercises on them.
l do 4 sets on each exercise (not including warmups) increasing the weight each time after a set.. my rep range will go something liek this..

set1 - 15rep
set2 - 10rep
set3- 6rep
set4- 2rep ........... then a drop set after that.


i believe that i am probably not pushing myself as hard as l should be...what will you recommend to fix up in my training to push myself abit more/grow faster

Increase your weight and drop your reps...No more than 10 reps on the first set...Focus on heavy, compound momvements...Also, make sure you're eating enough kcals to add mass...just don't pig out...

i agree with all but the reps for your 1st set..i like to warm up some times with 12+ reps or after my last set of heavy wt drop to a lighter wt and rep till i cant any more..some times into the 20+ range..

I guess I assumed that he wasn't counting his warmups into his working sets...

 

[Brat]

I would do five working sets MAX...and only on major exercises...you don't need to increase the number of sets because you'll be increasing your weight...

It's the best way to train, period.

 

[AngryMuscles]

5-6 reps with 2-3 sets are the best!!!!!

go take a look at the do deadlifts thicken waist sticky.pg.6 i think.3 day basic powerlifting routine.or take a look at my journal or some of the other strong guys journals.the 3 day split has really been a wonderful routine.when you get overtrained and lifting heavy will get you there take time off.when you get a weak point adjust the routine to hit the weak point.my man you have got to do your lower body or you just not doing it right period!
