Should I do 3x10 or 5x10 reps? Does it even matter?

5x10 will make you bigger.
3x10 will take up less of your workout.

4x10

Yes. You can trust me, I'm from the internet.

>>35664365
Nah fives are generally better for beginners since you need to learn the movement pattern as well. Also reduces workout time since you can get the same volume with fewer sets.
>>
>>35664235
what matters is overall volume. if you get your volume by doing 5x10, 2 exercises for 2-3 sets of 8-12, 10 sets of 3, doesn't matter hypertrophy-wise. if you want to train for strength, do your main exercise low reps and keep the reps high for accessory movements.

>>35664339
10 seems the way to go but how many sets?
