I've been hitting 40 sets (each set for 10 reps) per workout for the last 2 months and it's been unbelievable.

I always do the 40 sets in about 1 hour so it's intense. Sweat pouring and the muscles are burned the next day.

3x8, 5x5, 3x5, 4x6 and similar set/rep schemes are garbage and IMO you have to be a quick gainer to benefit from it.

So try it out if you can. Beat the shit out of the muscle group you're working that day. You will gain some serious definition and size. See pic related.

>Forgot to add:
I only train one muscle group each day, so thats 40 sets for 1 muscle group.

This is my current 5-split:
1. Back
2. Chest
3. Legs
4. Shoulders
5. Arms
repeat (no rest days)

What if I want to be strong without being gigantic?
>>
>>36793363
I'm not sure if you know this, but the body actually has muscles that aren't part of your arms. Neat, right?
>>

Why? for what purpose?

>>36793637
Well, not having to worry about clothes fitting over my arms is one.

Recently I've been doing one compound lift for 4-6 sets of 3-5, followed by 4-5 more exercises for 5 sets 10 ten with 45 second rests in my PPL routine.

Shit is amazing. Size has gone up, endurance has gone up, recovery time is great. 10-12 reps is GOAT for aesthetics.

You look better with the shirt on. It hides your comically undeveloped core.

>>36793681
also you arent going to get gigantic regardless you cant accidently get gigantic

>>36793685
Ah.
>>36793697
True, with how passively lazy I am at working out I'm not too worried about giant beef pipes suddenly sneaking up on my shoulders.

>>36793363
