That is how I train anyways..
In saying that I vary my rep ranges alot which is also important
for some muscles like back and chest I can't go for full tange eg. For lat pull down I can pull the bar up to chin with gr8 feeling but beyond that it becomes very hard to pull due to less flexiblity still I'm doin stretches every day...this happnes with many muscles so shoould I do it in same manner or its bettter to drop some wt?
