Combo it pyramid style fag got now git

Depends if you want to train strength (low reps)
or get bigger muscles (high reps)
a combo of the two is good

high reps high weight, cmon faggot

max weight is best followed by low weight to failure followed by submaximal effort. muscles only change to accomodate load.. so u gotta give it the load brah.

This

naw bro I still use svn desu

>svn

You'll never make it

tfw my uni's systems require svn... so far behind industry

LOW REPS FOR COMPOUNDS (3-5)
HIGH REPS OTHERWISE (8-12)
DOESN'T MATTER THAT MUCH COMPARED TO OTHER FACTORS

/THREAD

The only thing that matters is training volume

What's svn?

I typically do Strong Lifts and do 5x5 with heavy weight. The exercises I'm don't have planned for that day (e.g. bench on squat/OHP/DL day) I will do lower weight and higher reps. Seems to work well and get me volume.

so i should only do 3 reps of pushups? perhaps the most well known compound movement?
you're seriously retarded

What he probably meant to say was...

>1-5 reps main barbell compounds
>4-8 reps auxillary compounds
>8-12 reps isolation/accessory movements

And that's all you need to know.

Something developers of the last century used to manage to manage their source code.

>compound movements/big 3
Big boi weight low reps
>accessory movements
Low weight high reps

If youre doing push ups then its just low weight low reps you fucking retard. When we talk about low reps its assumed that high weight is used.

Do both, benefit from both, simple. If you had to choose one, low reps is superior for the natty.

>tfw chest has been getting bigger when I switched to high reps but I'm actually getting weaker
I don't know what to feel.

Do you want to impress men? Then focus on getting strong

Do you want to impress women? Then focus on getting aesthetic

>Do you want to impress men?

8-12 Reps. How do you not know this?
