Too many lifts sara. That's 29 sets. Keep it around 16 sets and up the intensity.

But Im not overtraining the same body part
you can see Im only doing 2 excersies for chest, 4 for shoulders and 2 for triceps
You only have on CNS though. Too many sets.
29 sets is a TON sara.
It doesn't matter. It's still only one body. One central nervous system. One resevoir of hormones and one stomach.sara said:
Anything after the 16th set is probably worthless, unless you're not putting any umphh into those first sets. How can you possibly maintain intensity towards the end of that?
Says who? This is a push and pull program that was not designed by me but by Dante. I am doing push and pull right now as well and I'll do 30-35 sets per day with push and pull. The idea is that you keep volume high and intensity a little lower when doing push and pull.

I only weigth train 4 times a week.. I don't train everyday
I don't maintain the same intensity.. you can see my shoulder press weight is less than I usually do.. I can use the 25's DB with no problem, but when I start with chest and then hit my shoulders, my shoulders workout tends to be harder
My body from personal expirienceJodi said:
But everybody's different.I'm not accustomed to this lower intensity stuff. I don't understand why somebody would ever want to do that if they wanted to build muscle.Jodi said:
How much time are in spending in the gym doing 35 sets?
The only way I can guage my intensity (besides heartrate, obviously) is by perspiration. Sweat on my forehead, not like under my arms or somethingsara said:
Where (as in during your w/o) and when do you start sweating during your w/o sara?

How much time are in spending in the gym doing 37 sets?
I don't spend more than 45 minutes on the push days
pull days ~ 30 minutes...
With this routine, I don't go for the light weight.. I start with my normal weight and then the intensity starts to decrease,
it pisses me off.. but I think thats normalI'm sorry sara, I should've asked what your goal is? I always assume that everybody is donig the same thing as me. I'm self centered like that
what is your goal? what do you wanna look like?
I bulked last year and put on muscle with Dante's push pull routine. There is more than one way to put on muscle and low volume high intensity isn't the only wayLuke9583 said:My body from personal expirience

I spend less than an hour lifting.O, I know this. Look at my journal. I'm am constantly switching it up between high volume/HIT/Rest pause/ supersets.Jodi said:There is more than one way to put on muscle and low volume high intensity isn't the only way
But I dont' understand why somebody would both 'going through the motions' if they weren't putting in the intensity
You can still build muscle without going to failure every exercise you do. I think everyone has their own definition of intensity. When I am done a push/pull routine, I've exerted myself to the fullest and I don't train to failure.
I only fail on rest pause.
I just wouldn't feel comfortable with a w/o if I could say "I didn't sweat"

Just because one isn't training to failure doens't mean that they are just going through the motions. Intensity is only referring to the load you are using in relation to your 1RM in a given exercise. If I were to take 75% of my 1RM (my 10RM in this case) and do 4 sets of 8 reps there is a good chance i am going ot hit failure in my last set but not in all of them and maybe in none of them. There are many differnet variables that can be altered to induce hypertrophy and make gains. Failure does not always have to be in the equation.
