Hi guys. Help me settle a bet?
Which of the following is best for maximizing strength? (Forget about getting big, I'm just talking about strength.)
Low Rep / Heavy Weight: 1-6 reps (5 reps on average)
Moderate Rep / Moderate Weight: 7-12 reps (10 reps on average) or
High Rep / Light Weight: 12 reps (15 reps on average)?

Thank you, bro. That's what I thought.
But, what's optimal for gaining mass? Moderate reps / Moderate weight ?
>>
>>36952680
Moderate reps (12-15) / Moderate weight
little rest between sets (30-60 seconds)
supersets/dropsets etc,time under tension.

For optimal strength, how much rest time between sets? I normally rest a minute to 90 seconds, but not for any reason. Am I doing it right?
>>
>>36952762
For optimal strenght it would be 2-3 minutes brah
>>
>>36952762
3-5 minutes rest for maximum strength performance.

>>36952790
just go with 3 and you'll be fine. its the number everybody agrees on and nobody disputes.
>>
>>36952762
It depends on your cardiovascular endurance and genetics
Rest until you feel fresh, don't be afraid to hit it again in 2 minutes or in 6.

Ok, thanks guys. Your input is much appreciated. I'll stick with three unless my body suggests otherwise. Cheers!
