[QUOTE="buggies100, post: 104644, member: 15086"] I love doing heavy sets, with reps at 4-5 and failure on set. It produces great gains, until......... It just has not been as good for elbows and shoulders. So I have moved over to 8-10 reps with lighter weight obviously. The other thing I have done to lighten the load and yet be effective is slow down the reps. So on the negative, say bench press, it is 4 seconds down and hold under tension, don't rest on chest, for a second and then push up. That slow negative is very good and muscle fatigue. Just FYI, your mileage may vary [/QUOTE]
