Which one is better?

[Power House]

Do you prefer supersets or dropsets? How do you incorporate them into your work out....ie. do you do drop sets every exercise. How many sets and how many reps?


I personally do 4 exercises for each muscle except arms excercises. I try to get anywhere from 12-15, sometimes I can ony get eight at the last set so I add another set of eight.

What are your preferences?


Thanks

Depends of what Im doing. I never superset chest, back, or legs. I almost always superset arms and calves. Sometimes shoulders and sometimes traps.

I like both but only do them maybe once a month never on every exercise. Drop(descending) sets give a great pump too.

Nothing exceeds like excess. Well lets say there is no better way other then change. You have to switch around.

I have to say though, I did 12 reps with 4 sets for a long time, but recently increased the weights substantially and now doing 8 reps and 4 sets, and it has me growing and bulking out everywhere... switching back and forth between supersets and dropsets would be a good way to keep changing your routine and fooling your muscles. There is always an advantage to upgrading to heavier weights, in fact its a good idea to jump up into heavier range about every 2 to 3 weeks or so.

I use both technniques as a shocker, but IMO they should not be used as part of a routin regularly. If I am at a sticking point I might use dropsets for 2 weeks on that certain muscle and it helps to overcome the plateau

i personally never do drop sets, just supersets every 2 months maybe..
