high,low,high

GOOD THOUGHT BIGCAT! THERE ARE MANY DIFFERENT WAYS WE CAN ALTER OUT ROUTINE, IF WE ARE LIFTIN FOR ATROPHY(MUSCLE BUILD) OR STRENGTH OR ENDURANCE, WE CAN DO THAT FOR EACH INDIVIDUAL GOAL, I THINK THE PUMP IZ KEWL I DO THE SAME, WHAT REALLY IS IMPORTANT IS REST THOUGH BRO(BETWEEN) SETS YOUR KINDA FREAKIN YOUR MUSCLE OUT BY CHANGING FROM HIGH TO LOW REPS(ARE YOU STAING WITH THE SAME WEIGHT) SEE WHEN YOU REST YOU ARE ALLOWING FOR YOUR MUSCLES TO BUILD ATP YOU NEED ANY WHERE FROM 45 TO 120 SECS AND HOW MANY REPS YOU DO AS WELL MAY AFFECT THE TIME OF REST(ITS ALL SCIENCE) AND WHEN YOU DO HIGH REPS YOU RUN OUT OF ATP FASTER AND YOU END UP WITH ADP. WHEN YOU USE THAT UP THEN YOUR MUSCLES GET SOME LACTIC ACID(THATS THAT BURNING FEELING BEFORE FAILURE ON HIGH REPS) AND LACTIC ACID IS NOT GOOD FOR BUILDING BIG MUSCLES SO YOU GOTT A FIND THE MIDDLE BRO ENDURANCE, STRENGTH, OR BULK... ITS LIKE TRYING TO LOOSE FAT AND GAIN MUSCLE AT THE SAME TIME.... BUT THE CHANGE IS GOOD OCCASIONALY!!!!!!!!!

I used to use this routine, but I was overtraining. I still do it though.....more like 12, 10, 8, 10. I try now not to do more than 4 sets of an exercise. I can go more intense that way.

Bigcat................ If you want to build mass, you should just throw in one superset per workout per muscle group. So if you work two muscles per day as I do, then you would do 2 supersets.......one for each respective muscle. For instance. Tues I work Chest and Tris. I select one excersise durring my Chest workout and I do 4 supersets. rep out untill failure with high weight, lower weight in 20-30lb increments and rep out again all the way down to zero weight. Rest for 2 minutes and do it again. 3-4 sets is suggested. This will kick your ass I assure you. Then I do the same for my Tris. Supersets have been the key to pump and muscle growth for me. High rep sets I save for the cutting cycles. Supersets do the same thing as what you were asking about, but they seem to stimulate more growth and pump. JOJO

So even if I am starting my first cycle of gear, do you think this may be overkill. I know I have heard that people on roids can train much longer than a natural weightlifter, which is kindof obvious. I just want to give 110% in my first cycle and make the best gains possible, thanks bros.

length of your workout shouldn't be a goal at all. Anything more than 1 and 1/2 hour is generally to much. Unless your power lifting or power training. I'm sure some people will disagree with this, but experienced lifters know anything more is considered overtraining. Only exception to this in my opinion is those guys who rest for 3-4 minutes in between sets. This is a normal practice for powerlifters, but rest time for the rest of us should not be more than 1 minute in between sets. Thus an hour and 1/2 workout is plenty of time to get in great workout.
