So yers just train 5 x 5 with same weight each time? I train 3 x 8-12 with two warm-up sets, might start doing this 5 x 5 for my shoulders as they are the weakest.... I add weight on to each set except for last set, where I may add some on, or keep it the same, depending how strong I'm feeling.

I.e: for flat bench:
Warm-up set = 12 x 40 Kg.
Second (Warm-Up) Set: 12 x 60 Kg.
Third Set: 10 x 75 Kg.
Fourth Set: 8-12 x 90.
Fifth Set: 8-12 x 90-95 Kg.

Do you think I should change this to say, 4 sets of 80Kg, orwhatever weight I can do for sets...
