What kind of set rep scheme do you do when taking testosterone

[baz88]

Different rep schemes target different goals right? Like a higher rep scheme of 15 reps for 3 sets aims for muscle growth wheresas 4-5 reps of 5-6 sets are more strength based. When taking something like sus 250 do you need to do any specific rep scheme?

15 reps per set is a pretty poor scheme for hypertrophy regardless of whether you are "on" or not. Obviously it's fine for a warmup....but not your working sets.

I don't change reps much at all, whether cutting or bulking, whether on or off. I keep it between 5-12. I just change it up a tad from time to time for the sake of variation.

10 to 15

I usually go between 10-12 reps, except the last set is diffrent. On my last set, I use a weight that I can only do 5 or 6 times, then I continue the set doing either rest- pause or a drop set to get to 10-12.

5x5 for compound movements and 3x10 for the assist movements....

But I do switch it up from time to time to keep my body guessing.

3 sets of 8, heavy!

all depends on what your goals are.Strength i would not go over 6 reps i like the 5x5 myself .and if you lift heavy then you are sure to put on mass .A guy i use to train with we would do every so often to break through plateaus we would do a main lift such as squats and do 10 sets of 10 reps but i deffinetly would not recommend that for every workout
