>he does 3x8 instead of 5x5
>>

i dont even know how anyone does 5 sets of their 5RM
its brutal as fuck and even if you manage to get 5 sets of that it seems like it would lead to CNS burnout real quick
maybe i could do but it would definitely have to be a lower weight than my 5RM
switching to 3x8 from 3x5 did sometimes help me to break an upper body compound lift (bench and ohp) plateau though
>>
>>77555324
3x8 =24
5x5=25

When this faggots learn that they are doing less Volume
>>
>>77555329
5 minute wait times in between sets

5 reps doesn't tear the muscle like 8 reps does, you can spend the last set doing as many reps as possible and when you begin to hit workouts where that final set is truly 5 reps you know in 1-2 more 5x5 sessions you'll have to deload as you're reaching a temporary plateau. 5x5 helps you get stronger, meaning your hypertrophy weight range is following behind.

This.
3x10 is the good ol' tested, tried & true range. Everything else is either not enough or junk volume.
Stick to it.
