Read gopros workouts, changing the rep range is a must if you want to get big

Leaness has nothing to do with set/rep scheme. Leaness is just a function of how much fat you've got covering your muscles, it has nothing to do with what you are doing to the muscle.

You should vary your sets/reps. But keep them in a lower range if you are trying to gain mass.

It can be something like 5/5, 3/8, 2/10. I don't see any point in you going over 10-12 reps.

You gotta move some weight if you want mass.

there are some exercises you go past the 10-12 rep range. could be forearms, calves ect. also there are things called window makers to help bring up the weak parts. They can be anywhere from 20-30 reps.

Oh yeah...

I forgot to mention that calves, abs and forearms can be worked with much higher reps.

Thanks for catching that.

Would you terribly mind not flaunting your incredible degree of ignorance and rudeness in front of the rest of the board members? Thanks.

These muscles in particular can take a lot of volume. This is because these muscles are used so often in everday life - your calves are used when you walk, your abs when you support yourself, and your forearms whenever you pick something up. They're used to doing more work, and so typically require more work to see results. One way to do this is with higher reps, but there are plenty of options.

Maybe train them more than once a week because they can handle it, but doing higher reps IMO is stupid

It's sad to see kind people trying to help out this whigger. Kenwood, come to my block saying that stuff. Please I would die to find out what they will do to you.!!!

Why do you immediately assume he is acting "black".
So you are all saying that black people speak in horrible english,
are ignorant, and rude and stupid?
