Here's GPs Power, Rep Range, Shock: Delts

I think you can go heavier. You just have to throw that shit up man! But, try to keep good form. Otherwise, I'd say maybe one more set....I'm not an expert though, so hopefully gopro can help here.

Remember that we don't want to be so "wasted" from our workouts that we cannot recover properly. Although you should be tired after you workout you shouldn't have to lay down and die. If you feel you need a bit more, than you can add a set here or there or add forced reps at the end of some sets. Mostly, use more focus and concentration than anything else. The longer we train (in terms of years) the more intensity we are able to generate in a single set, and the less training we need.

Gopro, your routine definately sounds appealing. I just wish you had illustrations to go along with those exercises. I guess I'm just more of a visual person.

I use an awsome book by Bill Pearl that really helps guide me through all my various exercises. The name is "Keys to the Inner Universe." Have you ever seen that one? It's cool to be able to look in the book and see the photo next to the detailed description of each exercise.

GP, how do u determine how many sets to hit each bp with?

 

[Randy]

That's a good question. I read about so many different theories that consist of an endless list of excercise recommendations as well as criteria recommendations for sets and reps etc. etc. It can drive you crazy. You hear and see so many, sometimes you don't know where to begin . I've been doing a routine similar to GP's for the last year or so except that I haven't followed the 3 changes of Power, rep range, and shock. I perform a minimum of 3-5 excercises per body part @ 5 sets each. I first do a lighter warmup, then start with 12 reps and add weight each set. This has proven to work very well for me. In roughly 2 years I went from 16 inch biceps to 18's and like 180 bench to 300 lbs. I by far am no professional, but I think that was some pretty good gains just for 2 years. I'm now working harder than ever and my goal is to go pro some day I hope. What size are your arms GP?
It looked like your chest was huge, but couldn't tell much from the small sig photo. I didn't see any posted in your gallery, but maybe I am blind.

But like I say, as far as sets go, I think it depends on the routine and the individual. My opinion from what I learned is that if you exceed 5 sets for any one bp, you may be overtraining. But again I guess that depends on the routine.
