Hello again,
Next Monday, I'll start 5's minicycle and after reading some more threads I have a doubt about volume.
Should volume be increasing together with load?
What I've done during 15's and 10's was to determine volume as Load x sets x reps.
I took as volume reference my 10's max. Example:
Example: 10kgs x 2 sets x 10 reps = 200 This is the volume I allways want to hit and during 15's, 10's and 5's. When it doesn't reach it, I increase some reps. Example when entering in 10's:
8kgs x 2 sets x 10 reps = 160 It is missing 40, so in that workout I do 5 or 6 more reps, something like 8kgs x 2 x 13 reps = 208 to keep volume constant.
But the question is: Should I also increase volume during the cycle? Is it better for hiperttrophy?
Tks Guys
