I thought I had a fairly crumby cycle just gone. i did 2x15s, 2x10 but only did 1x5 due to unforseen circumstances. However, I still managed +.75 on arms and +1 on legs (I also only managed to put on 5lbs).
I think this is pretty good for such a poor cycle. I was looking at dumping the 15s and just doing 10s and extending the 5s - then gradually upping the weight until I run out of reps.
My question is, does the body need a kind of saturation point as far a training to get muscle growth consistent . ie. does it take a certain period of time before muscle growth starts to become consistent (say a week) or does muscle start growing as soon as you hit the weight (well afterwards).
Hope that question makes sense. I'm just trying to gauge if theres a sort of "introductory period" before muscle growth really takes off in a cycle.
