so, if 9 is some sort of average optimal rep number for gainz... which is the optimal number for sets for 9 reps?

>doing 6 or 7 reps completely annihilates your gains, 5 or 8 is fine

>>38057014
Does this mean doing progressive sets of 10, 9, 8 is ideal for hypertrophy?
>>
>>38057047
>>38057049
Its true, thats why I avoid doing sets of 8, one mistake and you can loose your gains

1-5 for strength, 8-12 for hypertrophy. 6-7 does nothing.

are you faggets being unironically new?

>>38057014
no one answered my question yet. How many sets of 9 reps for gainz?
>>
>>38057074
>>38057049
>>38057029
it's like you don't wanna make any gains
>current year
>>
>>38057223
just make sure the total reps arent divisible by 6 or 7 (for obvious reasons)
>>
>>38057258
is this for real?
3 or 5 sets should work (but 4 kills the gains) then?
>>
>>38057014
worrying about rep ranges is stupid because youre going to get stronger way slower if you dont go over a certain rep, you should be going AMRAP on all isolation exercises and machines cause sometimes you need to do 15 reps with perfect form before you up the weight
>>
>>38057341
>doing 36 reps
>any year

shoo shoo gains goblin
>>
>>38057376
I just want to look good to cosplay as Aquarius Camus dude, pic related. Also, none of those numbers add up to 36 reps.
>>38057368
If i do 9 reps with a weight that i couldn't 15 rep with, won't the gains still be there since it's less reps but more weight?
>>
>>38057029
Summer, please lurk more
>>
>>38058122

It barely matters you spergs, just do 4-5 hard sets
