ADARQ & LanceSTS - Q&A / Re: Training for hypertrophy

« on: October 03, 2011, 02:25:46 pm »

Well I kind of paid attention to my diet to reach this 79.7 kg weight from 86 kg, and now apparently I must work to get that weight up? I want to stay a bit lighter so I can take less impact on my jumps and be a better jumper off one leg since it usually responds well to a lighter bodyweight.

So getting "heavier" doesn't suit me really well. Unless, of course, I gain 2 kg of muscle and squat 20 kg more which I wouldn't mind.

ADARQ & LanceSTS - Q&A / Training for hypertrophy

« on: October 03, 2011, 08:34:00 am »

After taking a good look at my leg size I decided that I want to grow them more, they're too small in size. So I want to train for hypertrophy for a good period of time (say 3 months or so).

Should I go with a more hypertrophy oriented approach in terms of total volume and rep ranges (I plan on doing 3x8-10 instead of my current 3x4-6) or should I keep doing my 3x4-6 and add a volume set (1x15-20 with 50% of my work set weight) in the end like I did for the last weeks?

The total amount of volume would be pretty much equal in both instances, with the difference that I'd have three more intense sets with the 3x4-6 approach:

3x4-6 x 120 kg + 15x70

VS

3x8-10 x 100 kg

I think the main concern for Nightfly is to stay away from grinding reps. If you feel like you struggle with a rep stop the set immediately. You need to train in such a way that you don't come close to your true RM for that set in order to prevent CNS burnout and to promote recovery.
