[MonStar1023]

Around 8-10 reps a pop for me..

 

[gymtime]

I do 3-4 normally. more for certain leg exercises.

 

[Mjollnir]

Periodization.

One month of 12-15 reps, a moderate month (starts today!) of 8-12, and a heavy month of 3-6 reps.

This is done on a HIIT basis.

 

[Stiffler]

I usally do anywhere from 5-9 reps depending on what set it is.

and 12-14 reps for my legs.

 

[Weapon X]

I do 3 sets of 6 for each bodypart.
I'm bulking. Should I rethink this??

 

[edgecrusher]

As I have stated before, my reps change slightly dependant on what my goals are. But for the most part I'm in the range of 4-9 reps.

 

[Jguns]

Periodization

Absolutely!

But I try to keep my leg reps higher than the rest of me.

 

[The mann]

i'm 8-10 for all small muscles,but i gotta go heavy3-5's for big muscle groups.........

 

[GenetiKing]

Typically 6-8. Depends on the musclegroup.

 

[Welsh power house]

i voted 6-8, but i also switch it up, as should everyone!
when buliing, i use 6-10 because that works best for me in terms of mass.
however, when training for strength, i prefer the range of 3-4 for larger muscle groups(chest, back and legs) and 5-7 for smaller(arms, delts and calves)

I'm sure i have already done a poll incredibly like this one.....hmmmm

Ture. I neglected to add that. My squats are usually done in reps of 30-35, depending on my sleep habits.

 

[needleboy]

Right now I'm doing H.I.T., one set to failure on everything. 2 Exercises per bodypart. Very strict form-using a 4/4 count. Reps are at least 12 - but I go to complete failure!!!

 

[Robboe]

I use 4-8 in general, but i also do higher rep stuff like 10-12 or 10-15 depending on the exercise or bodypart and i even go as low as 2-4.

I never really bother with 1 rep max's.

 

[JG1]

usualy 6-8 reps to failure

 

[bigpoppadrew]

First set is usually 12-15 reps, last set is 6-8 reps increasing weight with each set.

 

[buffal2001]

8-10........nuff said

 

[flex4life]

as many as I mentally & physically can... and then, as Arnold said in 'Pumping Iron'..."2 more, no matter what"

 

[WarriorPL]

8-12 for me

I usually do 12, 10, 8, 8(6)

Thats how it is for almost all my workouts.
