  • Musician and hobby athlete. I've finally decided that I'm going to train like a bodybuilder! I used do crossfit/strongman inspired workouts but with the most amount of work in the shortest time possible.

5 x8 is where Im at presently also on upper body . I was up around 8 x8 , however I feel 5 sets adequate volume ( same resistance each set ) to achieve maximum stimulus. Legs are 5 x15 for quads , 5 x 30 for calves & 5 x10 hamstrings.

I have to agree the 5x8. It allows me to use more weight and not burn out which I have
a tendency to do on 8x8. But Cajinjohn at iron online (who has trained at Vince's Gym) said
that they some times did one compound and one iso as superset. Like 4x8 gironda dip and 4x8 neck press.
I've fond that easier for my body to handle.

I do similar with 5 x8 but I superset gironda dip/Sternum chin & neck press/high pulley rows. I find that I fatigue too quickly with 2 chest exercises performed in a superset fashion and cant perform the volume of work I would like as a consequence. Whereas performing the supersets antagonistically ( chest/back ) I can keep the volume relatively high.

The last weeks I've been doing Vince inspired WO:s. So now I'll go back to my Bill Starr inspired 5x5, increasing the reps for each WO until I reach 5x8 than I multiply the weight by 1,07 and start over with 5x5.
