If I want to build mass should I do 3 sets of 8 reps even each time... or 3 set's of different reps eachtime?


Like which one of these should I do if I want to just gain mass, keep in mind I have a very high endurance when it comes to lifting cause I'm skinny (I'm a twig really):

1. 3 set's of 8 reps even at a very high weight with the same weight each time

2. 3 set's of 10 reps even at a very high weight with the same weight each time

3. A set of 5 at a very very high weight, a set of 10 at a lower weight and then a set of 15 at an even lower weight (like a pyramid) to get the most possible tear in muscle tissue each time(this is what I do now, but with what I'm doing right now I feel like I could do a little more, but when I do, I can't finish)

4. 3 set's of 8 or 10 rep's ADDING more weight each time.

5. Or since I have a very high endurance, do one of the prior
routines at 12 or 15 instead of 8 reps to get more burn
in so it's more effective.

6. Or should I be doing something different all together??

(I do warm ups before each actual set too)

Any straight guys out there who has encountered homosexual situations?



Answers:
I usually do 2 sets of equal weight and reps, then on the third set do the same weight, but go for as many reps as you can. And I can totally relate to you too, I'm freakin' skinny.

why do i always get a hard on?


I would vote for #6 and spend more time learning a martial art, which is useful, than pumping iron which tends to be pretty dry, boring and time consuming.

You could still do the weights some.

guys well i think only guys would answer this but..?


I usually do the 8 to 10 with same weight. But i found I made more progress in doing 4 to 6 reps with heavy weight. FORM! FORM! FORM!
