Are these sets being taken to failure?
15 sets for a bodypart every blue moon isn't necessarily bad. it may even be good. But a natural trainer can't get away with it regularly or they'll overtrain.
I just don't see the benefit from doing another 20-25 sets on top of that.

Yes, but your body can only lose so much weakness before its recovery abilities can't repair it properly.

There sure are quite a few whiners in here who apparently don't have the mental strength it takes to make it thru the PAIN!! Hehehehe.

I could. I just don't see any reason to do so when it isn't necessary and could in fact be a Bad Thing (tm).
It is a bad thing and a waste of time. Keep the volume low and the intensity EXTREMELY high and you will see results. There is no need to do more than 10 sets for any bodypart.
Ah, see now you're missing the point. It's NOT always about bodybuilding. Check out DP's thread on shoulder smackdown. He's just one crazy SOB!Originally posted by Snake_Eyes

There's a time and place for being a crazy SOB.

However, perhaps if someone was physically here and challenged me and could do it themselves, then I'd at least have to try cause I'm one COMPETITIVE SOB!![]()
Bodybuilding isn't everything, it's just that being small, weak, and puny REALLY sucks!!

DP, for how long you practice workouts like these?
The reason I'm asking is that see a lot of mature BBers with shot knees and they all tell me they worked their legs a lot. I just want to find a happy medium between shot knees and chicken legs :-)
