In order to build muscle as fast as you can, what is the optimal range of set and reps pera a bodypart that one should do ?


In a 12 week time frame what is the most muscle that a person can gain?

 
Forked if I know....Stuart McRobert suggests that higher rep range should be used for back and legs....that's something I take into account.

Depends on the person.

Depends on the current training experience/level, what level they are at currently, and how much fat they are willing to gain along with the muscle.
 
whatever someone prefers. You can build muscle at 3 reps, 5 reps, 8 reps, 10 reps, 15 reps ect.
 
Don't know, but I try to at least get 5, but no more than 8. So if I get 8 I will up the weight but only enough to allow me to get 5 reps than I try to add a rep each workout until 8 again.
 
I like reps of 5 or less. Seems to work well at getting stronger and as I get stronger I get bigger.
 
I thought you were supposed to keep repping until the hot girl has walked passed and entered her Pump class?

Workouts are really hard when uni starts for the year.
 
Next topic of the week- Why are there so many retards on here giving useless information.

this aint BB.com
 
It isn't useless information, its a discussion forum, to discuss and argue why this is better than that or what works better than this. No ones asking you to follow anyone's advice
