I just discovered what pyramiding is all about thanks to everyone here that posted at my last thread, but I have a second fundamental problem with my workout that I haven't been able to grasp yet. I plan on using enough weight on each excercise to get just 6 reps initially (upper body) 12 reps...
I cant really go to failure as of yet because I'm just starting out, but am looking for as much information as I can get so I have a plan with a structured workout so my head isn't spinning. So from what I hear so far from most of you is yes, train to failure on every set?
I was on vacation when that happened. My wife woke me up and said honey we're under attack. That got my adrenaline pumping like nothing has before. If I may suggest also that the passengers that crashed in Pennsylvania be noted for their bravery and saving innocent lives.
Bill Pearl, a five time Mr. Olympia at 42 years of age had 21" arms and weighed 240+ pounds with a competition figure. You just have to want it more as you get older, it's definitely possible though.
Lets say I'm doing any compound excercise of 3 sets, the first being 55% of my max and on up to 85% on my 3rd. If I do 6-10 on this excercise do I go to failure on just the last set?
I think Mike Mentzer should have won the 1980 Mr. O myself. It's obvious in the posedown that Arnolds legs are something left to be desired. Everyone knows that he started his legs late and it showed. Yes he's a star now with his famous one-liners but he just wasn't all that in 1980, even...
There's no such thing as a quick fix. Whatever it is your'e looking for is out of reach because what it takes to get you there isn't found inside you, but in some promising package.
