      The guy on the bottom would look like he could eat the top guy if they were next to each other

          It's like you guys can't understand something you don't see directly. You probably think the guy in the mirror is a separate person who looks like you.

    Lifting for aesthetics is gay.
    Especially when you consider that the aesthetic being chased by roidtrannies is a wholly israeli invention.

      Case in point: literal gays. There's a predominantly gay neighborhood where I live that has a branch of a gym that I go to. The gym is full of homosexuals who have taken lifting for aesthetics to perfection. Not a single man there has a mediocre body, but they're all gay as shit and make a frick ton of Instagram posts of pics from the gym locker room. Don't believe me? Look up Xsport fitness 3030 N Broadway st, Chicago, IL on Instagram and look at the tagged photos and pay attention to the hashtags as well

    Is 5x8-10 moronic? I started lifting again in January and did SL to get back to where I was. Now less than 5 sets seems like half a workout. Weight adjusted so that I'm 1 or 2 reps from failure.

      You'll probably will make gains from it for a while but doing 3x10-12 at a heavier weight will give you bigger muscles faster and doing 5x5 at a much heavier weight will give you strength faster.

      what some people I know do is they either do both, so 2 chest days per week, one for strength 5x5 and one for mass 3x10-12 or they go in cycles, 2-4 months of strength 5x5 followed by 2-4 months of mass 3x10-12 then you deload for a week amd either go back to strength or you cut bf is its getting to high or if your happy with your size and want that beach ready body.

              Hypertrophy
              Endurance
              Strength training revolves around very few reps. 6 max. Moron. Hypertrophy revolves around 8-12 reps. Endurance is more so around 15-20+ range

You very clearly have not looked at a strength/hypertrophy program in your life, and can only spout off the most basic, dumbed down version that's told to absolute beginners.

                also since you clearly have no idea what you're doing with your exercises (optimal reps), chances are the way you have your exercises spread out is also disorganized. Chances are you don't properly rest trained parts properly either. Chances are your diet is shit too going by how anti-logic you are LOL. Your little b***h gains probably still have you as a featherweight too. Stop winging it and pay attention to the data instead of going by "muh bro science!!"

    After having experimented with different set/rep schemes, I always revert back to 4x6-8. Pretty sure, I will stay with it forever, since it just works best for me. Simple double progession, increasing the weight when I can do 8 reps in all sets.

    I don't even know what it is about 6-8 reps per set, it just feels right.
