Then I'll take a short 30-45 second break and hit it again with the same weight and force every last rep I can get. On smaller muscles like arms, I usually will do 4 sets of 4-6 reps. Larger muscles like back and legs (sometimes delts), I so 3 working sets. I respond well, as most do, with 3-4 sets of about 3 exercises per muscle group. On paper it looks as if it's a lazy and half a**ed workout, but in reality it is much more exhaustive than high reps with lower weight. Body composition has a more rapids onset with heavy weights and low reps. But it takes years to perfect and know exactly how your body responds, and we're all different.
    ooooh I think I'm going to try a combo of heavy weight and end with high reps on some lifts. I've been doing 4-5 exercises per muscle group and 3-4 sets with high reps but on heavy days, I do 4-5 sets of 8-10 reps. Since I'm switching up my routine to include an extra rest day, I need to write out a new routine. Will try to post my current routine today! Work has been crazy lately!!!

    Anyways, THANK YOU for all the info!!

    Shoot yeah! And keep up posted on everything. The more I learn from a woman's perspective, the better off I am for reasons I've mentioned. I'll post up a routine that I'm working with a woman right now who's on the verge of stardom. She's 29 years old, 5'7", 165lbs and sub 20 body fat. She'll be sub 15 in a few weeks. I'll post her "bulk" routine up when I get home. She's on more of a cut at the moment, and you dont need that right now.
