Re: Return to work out - Upper chest

Lost Soul

Appreciate the time you take to help out newbies. Coudl you please eloborate on your comment above: "overreaching, deloading and rest before starting again". How long in each cycle and what do you mean by overreaching. How long to rest?

What I am doing I targeting 8 reps. as soon I as I hit it on any exercise I add the smallest increment available which typpically send me back to 4. I then build up til I get to 8 again and repeat. Wondering what you think of this as a method to target both mass and strength?

thanks,
