So you think this is too much? I had this program designed for me by my trainer back home that I respect deeply.. He has gotten me to points I never thought possible... The reason for the high reps and sets I think is because my upper body naturally gains very easily and don’t want to get any bigger.. So he designed the program to just keep me lean and to work on my strength. Especially because I have been off for a while and I have lost so much strength but I don’t want to get bigger in my upper body… What are your suggestions?
 
...I certainly wouldnt do that many sets


Im not going to tell you what you shoud be doing.

I would look theu some of the se threads at beofre and after pics and make my decisions based on that



IMO

1 - ALL HIGH REPS WILL NOT EQUATE TO STRENGTH

2 - THE WORKOUTS HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH BEING LEAN - THAT IS DIET






but...like I said...look thru the threads....you should be dropping 1% bf per week...with ZERO loss of muscle

okay so what about just droping down to 2 sets for each

I would do this:

re-arrange your workouts to do one bodypart per day...and keep the supersets but lower the rep range a little...


that lets you:

1 - keep the same number of sets per bodypart...but drops total sets as you are only doing one bodypart

2 - allows better systemic recovery
 
You must spread some Karma around before giving it to The Shadow again.

I hate that message!!! I always get it for you and sassy... grrr...
Thanks Shadow for the advice... I think I am just going to drop down to 2 sets up the weights so that I am only doing 15 and then in a couple of weeks break into a three day split.. Mabye you can help me design it then.. thanks again
