    total sets for large and small muscle groups

    What would you say is the best set range for:

    Chest, Back, Biceps/triceps, Quads/Hammies, Delts/Traps

    I'm trying to figure out some new workouts b/c I think I might be overtraining due to too many sets

    So, if done to failure, 3 sets of 8 on bench, incline and cables should be enough for chest for an entire week?

    chest is a big muscle so you wanna aim for 12-14 sets not 8-9 like small muscles

    So should I stay with bench, incline and cables only and just do 5 sets? Or should I add in a set of 3 with flys?
