      you fukers mad. I finish my workouts quick.

      Took me about 30 minutes to finish my Chest/shoulder/tricep workout today.

      Strength increase is insane.

      For Example

      I usually do shoulder presses after incline bench press and flat db presses

      Grab the 60-65s for a quick warmup for around 4-6 easy reppys

      then grab the 90's for my working set and rep it to failure

      Its modified.

      Basically Legs/Push/Pull/off/Repeat. Its very similar to Dorian Yate's blood and guts style training routine. I made huge gains doing a 5 day bodybuilding split based on blood and guts style training when i was noob but now since i upped the frequency and know my body better, ive been seeing all kinds of gains.

      you mad there are plenty of studies showing multiple sets > single set for both strength and hypertrophy?

      arent you the genetic freak of nature who got his bench up to 365 in 10 months of training. Posted the video of 110 shoulder presses with a spotter.

      Inb4 ten page discussion of people preaching terribly-flawed studies that barely even relate to the topic and cannot be applied with any sort of relevance
