Hi guys,
Is doing squats with lower weights but more reps the same as heavier weights with less reps? For example 20kg x 20 reps compared to 40kg x 10 reps. Thanks. |

any pic of those wanted to flaunt what they works for? less weight, more reps = endurance max weight, nice reps = bulk right? |

QUOTE(Majinity @ Jun 20 2010, 12:39 AM) I overheard a PT in FF saying that, higher reps for calves and traps because its small muscles he says. its not small, my calves is 20" ya atm.its stubborn. it need more stress. and because we do work it on higher reps, most of us uses the tendon rather than the muscle itself ( pushing the weights too fast on which the tendons stores some dont know what energy) im lousy at using all this terms. |

Even if it's Ronnie Coleman's calves it's still categorized as such. Isn't it supposed to work the other way round? Very low reps hit the joints more right? Eg. Bodybuilders don't like 1RM/3RM deadlifts cos the muscle isn't really worked.its stubborn. it need more stress. and because we do work it on higher reps, most of us uses the tendon rather than the muscle itself ( pushing the weights too fast on which the tendons stores some dont know what energy) im lousy at using all this terms. |

Will I regret having posted this in the morning? Probably. I'll be damned if insomnia doesn't adversely affect one's judgment.
