5"11, weight 80kg,bench:90kg max,deadlift 190kg max,squat:120kg max, db curls:25kg for 4 reps, military press:80kg for 4 reps

you can military press 80kg 4 times but cant bench 90.5kg once?


thats more messed up then rocky lunging more then he squats, especially when you were doing 17.5kg dumbell shoulder presses for 6 reps not many weeks ago...

Next week is the Start of High volume frequency Training, i will admit that i was brainwashed from max-ot but i think i should give high volume a go and do the for the next 12 weeks

 

[tim290280]

In answer to your PM; 24-40 is the reps per bodypart in a session.

This isn't a low figure by any means. I would qualify it by saying "What do you get out of pulldowns after having done 50 chinups?"

 

[Rocky]

Nice delt session. Good low reps hitting them from all angles.

i think its too much volume, you just want to stimulate not anihilate your muscles, better incresing frequency than volume, after one or two heavy benches and subsequent chest work is not going to stimulate growth unless you push more weight on the later sets, but i dont think you will. you made some improvement on the max-ot routine which was good to see but having heigher weights on such low reps doesnt mean much for hypertrophy really, if you sqaut the 100 kgs you were doing for 15 reps, then you would have some size, but for 4-6 its not to hard to get that. high volume is not the answer for naturals, and it only works if most of the sets a sub maximals or warm ups, you should only go to failure on one set per exercise, if your doing that much volume, even then i dont like it, people think they get really big on volume but its mainly being swollen from to much volume, because your so damaged you retain heaps of fluid.
