anyway
on all my lifts recently instead of pyramiding up like i normally do ive been trying a warmup set followed by my heaviest, then pyramiding down. not sure how i feel about it, but i needed to mix it up.
I swtiched that that reverse pyramid type of lifting and i'll never go back to the standard pyramid set scheme. I LOVE it. You wont notice much of a size increase, but youll certainly get stronger.
Also, what makes those vitamins better than the rest. To me, any one a day vitamin is more than enough for every person.
i could post up some research concerning why ortho-core is superior, i have a killer headache right now im about to take a nap but ill post it up tonight.
i think what turns most people off is the price, but youre getting a lot for your money.
as for the reverse pyramid yeah i feel like having my 4th or 5th set be the heaviest makes little to no sense.........any reasons/ideas as to why it doesnt add mass though?
Id be interested in reading some reserach on why certain multi's are better than others....
With any type of lifting program the first set is always the most important and every set after gets marginally less effective. I shouldnt say it doesnt add mass. Thats a blanket statement, and it actually depends on how youre setting up your set scheme. If it was 10,12,15 for example then it will put on more mass than say 6,8,10,12 (which is what i do). With my first set (6) it's essentially a strength rep with each set being less effective than the previous even though its in a mass building rep range.
The hardest part is determing what weight youre going to start your sets with.
idk.
I don't hit my stride until the 3rd set and on most of the time.
The reverse pyramid makes sense if you're training until muscle fatigue but other than that it's prob. counter productive.
How is it counter productive? Its biomechanically set up the same way the body works.
If you dont hit your stride till the 3rd set then your first 2 arent high enough.
