Sets Per Week
- Thread starter powerup79

i generally do a split routine 3 days. just fits my schedule best.
it comes out to 3-4 workouts per week, that is all i want/need at this point in my life (i'm getting beat up and old)
each split session is around 20 sets. my workouts aren't easy whatsoever but i stopped going super heavy a few years back
if i could go back in time i would tell myself 10 years ago to not lift so damn heavy!

When you say "not heavy" what rep range and proximity to failure are you talking?

i would workout around 75% on most days. how old are you?
I'm 42. Right now I'm at 110 working sets a week not including any abdominal training. Most lifts above 10 reps close to failure.

bro i start morning with pole climb on tanker, 150ft. then i do situps while hanging off pole and saltuing american flag, then do 100 pullups with weight tied to me. that my workout in morning
I do a lot of sets per week, at least 40-60 sets per week
but i split them into 10-20 sets per training session and combine with cardio
I try to complete 120 sets per week, mixing different parts of the body
Zero idea. I'd have to go look. But I'm a low volume guy
It depends on what the goals are!
It depends on your goals and your comfort level.....
not heavy meaning i don't max out 1-2 reps anymore.
i take my reps close to failure on compound lifts but on iso's i do go to failure why not.
What is your heaviest sets on compound movements? 5 reps, 8 reps, etc...
I usually stick to 10, even on bench or squat. Sometimes 8. considering hypertrophy is my goal less prob start to move away from hypertrophy focus to strength focus.

4 workout days 3-4 sets per muscle for me
I typically do 3-4 days per week and will do around around 18 sets per day so roughly 50-75 per week. Remember though, I am not trying to get huge but just trying to stay lean and add a pound or 2 of lean muscle per year.
