Kinda true but a better way to use is an acronym called T.U.T.

this is a much better way to challange muscles then traditional reps for routines

Most power lifters do very few reps with maximal weight to gain max strength in minimum time........

indeed and they cycle reps to effort 🙂

Core for mass will always be Bench, Squats, Deadlift -

Cleans and Snatch if you have had coaching -

although cleans are highly aerobic suprisingly in some situations.

i'm told a good way to build mass is like this

3 reps at 80% max...2 reps at 90% max and 1 at 100% max limit

any opinions?

Pretty Good

the best use a 4 to 8 week cycle because of the effects heavy weights have on the nervous system elite lifter often rest exercises for 8 or more days e.g. only deadlift every ten days. They ten to cycle reps so First week 3 sets which are 8, 6 ad 4 reps respectively, second week they go up the weights and do maybe 6, 4, 2

third to fourth week as a longer rest is needed 4, 3, 2, final week a lot like yours.

Some use a longer drop to tail off the weight and the weight goes up each week as the reps go down.

How many sit-ups, push-ups and track running should I do to get muscular?
