It was a typing mistake its 37.5 Well the thing is, i do it in stages like if i do 3 sets of 35 kg 3 x 10 then next time i go the gym the following week ill do 35kg, 35kg, 37.5kg. Its just slow progress really. |

I would say 21 sets of compunds in one workout is high volume. But its a relative term. Volume training as much would mean something totally different and normally means lots of isolation work if thats what your driving at Last edited by Bulldozer; 30-01-2008 at 10:52 PM. |

What do you all suggest ? The riptoe is designed for day on, day off etc i can only go monday, tues, thurs 2 of my other mates are using a similar workout to me and seem to be gaining strength and size. They sometimes lower the weight as they go along. |

lol, I get what you mean now... The difference is that its lower volume on singular muscles as in chest on one day etc... Being lower volume on specific muscles means they can be trained more frequently, so I just think an upper/lower is more effective at building muscle as you can stimulate protein synthesis with less stimulus at once with the same results.
