    Better gains!

    Alright all You gurus, pros and everybody else.
    Question...

    Which out of these two routines would be more intense, give better resuluts, growth/strenght

    For example... One can do 125lbs in standing barbell curls for 2 reps

    First routine
    95x8
    95x8
    95x6
    85x8
    85x6
    85x6
    75x6
    75x6
    75x6

    Second routine
    105x6
    105x5
    105x5

    Assuming all reps are positive failures.

    So, what You say?

    Well for growth I like using 8-12 reps and for strength I like the 2nd routine.

    I would suggest combining a set or two from the first routine into the second.

    Maybe for a warm up do
    95x8
    85x12
    then start the second routine

    personally I like to do drop sets when doing curls, I get better results with growth that way.
