OK guys I have a opened question for the guys who know the studies and research much better than I do.
This question is around sets and reps for any Full body routine and especially HSt.
Now I know the answer to this is always do as much as you can and recover. I agree, and I am one of the guys here who follows a higher volume HSt plan...or fullbody plan.
I know that a lot of guys keep there total work constant
2 sets of 15 3 sets of 10 4 to 5 sets of 5 reps.
But does research show us what the ideal amount of reps it takes for hypertrophy.
When does the excess sets become more a means of burning calories as bryan states.
I know load has a lot to do with this as does frequency as well as noobie training and veterans.
But if we had to say one size fits all and not for noobies.
What would idea volume of reps and sets look like on 3 days a week.
Do we have studies showing 15 reps is better than 10 or 25 is too much?
Just curious as to what the science says and what becomes of the extra sets if we are able to do them and recover?
