    Thumbs up How many sets do you get in?

    I work each muscle once a week, I find this to be the best way to be proportional and get the best workout for every muscle. Also this is the best way to avoid overtraining by hitting each muscle only once a week. Some muscles like bis/tris may get hit twice a week but you only hit them directly once a week.

    I would like to hear some opinions on how many working sets you guys do (Not including warm up sets) Also state how many times you work out each muscle a week and tally up how many sets you do per muscle in that week.

    Chest - 12
    Back - 14
    Shoulders - 12
    Arms - 8 Biceps, 8 Triceps
    Legs - 14

    Also it takes me about an hour to complete a full workout. Hour and a half max.

    I don't even break a sweat until about 10 sets in. Usually do around 25 for large muscles, back shoulders and chest in no more than 45 minutes.

    Sets of 6-8 every minute.

    I usually do each muscle once a week but I am currently at the peak of my cycle so I'm going to start doing each muscle twice a week to try and get the most results. Ill switch it back towards the end.
