10x3 or 5x5
10 * 3 = 30
5 * 5 = 25
so 10 * 3 has more
>>36339414
Yet 5x5 will make you stronger & more aesthetic
3 sets of 5
used to do 5x5 before but it takes too much times, and it exhausts too much for the other excersices
>>36339414
more =/= better
perfect form, diet and sleep matter 10 times more. go with 3x5
>>36339438
I think 4 is a good middle ground. Sometimes that 3rd set just doesn't push you enough
20x2 Lower weight
10x3 Medium weight
5x2 Heavy
Is what I do, nattys will tire out though
>>36339401
10x3 good for blasting plateaus
Look up 10x3 routine on tnation, its breddy gud
>>36339454
That's what I do, 3 & I don't feel tired & 5 & I'm dead af
Capcha: select kayaks, makes me select boat
5x5 because I can never remember whether sets or reps goes first.
10x3 is objectively better. But you better be a NEET with no responsibilities.
>>36339401
10x3 for speed/ power (power cleans, snatches)
5x5 for volume work on heavy compounds (squats, bench, etc.)
>>36339616
> he canonly do 10 snatches
>>36339429
If 5x5 = strength then wtf is 5x3?
Also, I thought 10x3 was for aesthetics.
3x3
Drop weight
2x12
Man I thought we were talking about dick size...
5x5
>>36339642
>10 sets of 3 snatches
Theyd most likely be power snatches anyway
>>36339401
3x5 then 3x8-10 at 75%
>tfw this actually takes less time than 10x3
>>36339668
More strength
>>36339668
How could you think that triples are for mass gains?
>>36339401
5x5 masterrace.
>>36339668
5x3 is also power work, usually triples are used for olympic lifts and their subsidiaries
6.5x5.5
>>36339454
Then your not lifting heavy enough relative to your strength. Im fucking tired after my second set of bench and by the 3rd set im exhausted
>>36339401
3 x 10^(5x5)

8x6
>>36339401
Not doing:
2x10 (@ 70%, 5 rep working weight)
2x5 (@90%, 5 rep max)
1xAMRAP (@90-95% 5 rep max)
>>36339401
I never feel like 5x5 exhausts me. Ive tried it for a week and just dont feel like I accomplished shit.
>>36339735
>6 sets takes less time than 10 sets
Am I the only memester that does 12-15x4-5? My gains are fabulous.
My workouts are 1hour15min max as well.
8x3 12x1 or 3x12.
ax2 + bx + c = 0
>>36339438
>>36339534
>5x5 makes me tired
lol wtf? Isn't the point of working out to push yourself and make gains? If your tired today, next week you will be less tired.
>>36341720
Im starting 5x5 to gain str then ill be moving onto that program.
Other than squating 5x5 doesn't do much at the moment. Two weeks from now and ill be feeling those sick gains
>>36339401
3x5 on big compounds, and 3x8 on accessories is what I do. Works great.
This thread is full of stupid
>>36341657
5x5 squats kills me. I can do it monday and wednesday but then I get DOMS and fail reps on friday.
>>36343264
>DOMS
Doesn't that go away after a couple of workouts
>>36343272
I don't get it for anything other than the squats anymore. Probably because squats are the only thing done 3x a week. I am sure it will stop soon. Still making progress on the weight at least.
