Put an end to this debate (General Routine Thread)

5x1 if you are lifting real weight. If you are curling 10 lb you can do 20x30 or whatever gives you a pump for all I care

You've listed two extremes. I'm asking for the sweet spot between strength and aesthetics.

>>38062419

That's more or less the same as 5x3, and I'm judging purely based on quantity and rest in between.

>>38062441

3xf or 5xf for whatever aren't measurable numbers so I did not include them in the poll.

>>38062380
Its 10x3

>>38062472
There's no sweet spot between strength and 'aesthetics'. In my personal opinion some muscles require different number of reps and sets to develop.

>>38062380
5X5
Weights and cardio three times per week each on alternating days. Rest 1 day.

>>38062507
This.
Doing 4X4 for calves is fucking idiotic. 1-2X12-20 is much more effective.

Doing 2X12 for deads is pointless tough.

5x5 trumps 8x3?

I've been doing it wrong this whole time?

That body dude, I mean I'm not homo but holy shit.

>>38062566
I do 5x10 deads at 65% though on 5/3/1 BBB

Am I going to die?

>>38063439

~3x5 compounds
~3x8-12 assistance

hit ~70 reps per major muscle group per workout
hit ~40 reps for prefatigued muscle groups (ie. tris, front delts on push day or bis, rear delts on pull day)
hit every musclegroup 2x a week
PPLPPLx or ULxULxx

I didnt pull those numbers out of my ass, it's in Eric Helms' Training Pyramid Book
>My protip for 3d delts: 4x20 Lateral Raises 2-3x a week

what about rep schemes that change like smolovs og mat ogus's 7/5/3

Can someone please educate me, is it setsXreps or repsXsets?

>>38065831

based on the gigantic faggot OP is he surely used repsxsets

There's no way that faggot have tought about 12setsx3reps i.e.
