Do not read anything that arnold said he did
Sure it may work but we are past that era and now realise that volume is not the only way to create growth
Progressive tension overload is = adding more weight
My prefered method is low volume, super high intensity
Example of my chest routine
Benchpress 45(warm up), 90(warm up 20reps), 135 (warm up 6 reps), 180(warm up 4 reps), 200 ( work set, 10 reps, followed by rest pauses, drops, static holds etc...
Incline benchpress 135(warm up), 200 (work set similar to last work set)
Job done!
Just make sure you come next week and beat this weeks weight or reps

Asuming ur a beginer??? I think more volume with lower intensity can be used as i doubt a beginer could match my intensity in a safe manor if u kno wat i mean
The point im tryin to make is 10 sets is enough for chest, i use 2 or 3 working sets and im sore for days
As a beginer i wouod reccomend 5-8 working sets close to failure

not tryin to knock you cause you do whatever works best for you, but why bother with the 45 lb and 90 lb warm-up set ?? if you're pushing 200 for 10 reps then i'm assuming your max is somewhere in the 275 range ? why not just throw a plate on and bust some reps out for your warm-up and get rolling....
