QUOTE(mikehuan @ Aug 9 2011, 12:39 PM) Jeez that's a lot of sets. Doin shoulders/abs today and back tomorrow. My routine: Bent over bb rows V grip pulldowns Seated rows - two warmups sets followed by full stack sets of 12 reps until I fail the last set at 8 reps HS plate machine pulldowns or db rows depending on availability Deadlift - heavy, failing at 3 or 4 reps on the last set The rest is usually 4 sets of pyramiding reps from 12 to 8 as weight increases. solid workout, some times i vary between db rows and deads, depend on energy level on that particular week... btw, u got the high volume goin on too brah... 22 sets plus warm up...

Added on August 9, 2011, 1:16 pmQUOTE(razorboy @ Aug 9 2011, 01:10 PM) Having such a bad start of the week, cant wait to get to the gym later to just forget about stuff for a little while. Back and bi's today. At my gym, our dbs only go up to 60lbs. There's only so much you can row at 60lbs. nothing more therapeutic than the sound of irons clanging, sweat drippin, and yeah buddin" everytime u lift that weight...

QUOTE(razorboy @ Aug 9 2011, 01:22 PM) More like "Hi, boleh tak saya guna kejap" for this equipment, for that equipment. "Hai lo hai lo" ,nods and smile to uncle telling me stuff, "Tak de la, saje buat syok" at another uncle ask me to wear a belt if I go heavy on my tricep work. My goodness. Most of the time my cortisol levels go up even more. Hopefully, an empty gym tonight. you should wear a shirt with "Shut Up and Train" written on it... any wise uncle(s) come give advise, just point at your shirt...

QUOTE(mikehuan @ Aug 9 2011, 01:41 PM) Lol that shirt is the bomb! Too chicken to wear that shirt though haha. Makes you appear very elitist, especially for me at beginner / intermediate lvl. My sets all pyramid ones le bro, urs probably 12 reps for all sets. Tried it before and totally couldn't make it zzz no worry, just wear it, let ppl know you come to gym not to mess around, u come to gym to train n get big... im piramiding up to, higher reps with less weight at the start of the set and end with lower reps with more weight... i try to get atleast 12 reps with my heavier sets, but usually landed on 10, depending on how my energy level, but i make sure my reps range is 10-12 reps depend on which exercise.. Added on August 9, 2011, 2:14 pmQUOTE(darklight79 @ Aug 9 2011, 01:55 PM) You're talking about work pressure? Come we switch professions and see. Try working out with 2 hours sleep the night before. =P pure dedication... if im only to allow to sleep 2 hours a day, i might as well forget about working out...

QUOTE(razorboy @ Aug 9 2011, 02:15 PM) Give DTP a try. Dramatic Transformation Principle. 10 sets 50 rep light weight 40 rep increase 30 rep increase 20 rep heavy 10 rep heaviest 10 rep heaviest 20 rep heavy 30 rep decrease 40 rep decrease 50 rep decrease do it for antagonistic muscle groups. bis and tris( curls and skull crushers) chest & back ( db press and db rows) Supersets style 50 reps curls supersetted wit 50 reps of crushers.get the idea? You can try just single exercise and rest 30 seconds between sets. or you can challenge yourself and go for the superset and rest 1 minute. For legs, you can try extension and leg curls. Shoulder Press and Shrugs Leg Press(single exercise) the routine is good for shocking the muscles and also good for a plateauing growth... definately will try...

QUOTE(-Dan @ Aug 9 2011, 04:16 PM) I don't usually decide what to do till I get to the gym  But maybe something like Warm up with DBs/empty bar Incline DBs x 5 Flat BB x 4 Incline flyes x 4 Hammer strength machine x 4 Incline flyes x 4 Cable flyes x 3/4 Typically 10-15 reps a set with as much as weight as I can get for that rep range. again, another solid exercise.... too bad my local gym doesn't have any Hammer Strength..

QUOTE(gtoforce @ Aug 9 2011, 08:20 PM) Kejap How do u measure intensity? I know volume is sets so intensity is reps? FST7, rest pause, force reps, supersets, tri sets, and etc, all are to increase your workout intensity... you don't measure intensity, but to feel and experience it...

QUOTE(Mudkippz @ Aug 10 2011, 10:21 AM) I've been doing some reading and apparently upright rows are bad for your shoulder? I've been doing them for quite some time and i dont seem to have any pain/injury.Any of you had any bad experiences with it. bad technique is the culprit, not the exercise, being doing it for quite some time to add mass to the lateral head...
