What do you consider high reps?

[Heman713]

What do you consider high reps as in building muscle and what umber does it change? I feel 10 to 12 reps is high reps…but after I work out the muscle I go dor 15 to 20 reps and then if feels so much better as if the 15 to 20 rep might be a muscle builder…

Depends on lift deadlifts that range is high reps but curls not so much.

Here is a version of prilepins chart the original was from the soviet olympic weight training days.

Its a good general rule.

 

[JLee]

Generally 12 to 15 is my normal rep range. 25 is high for me.

 

[Poppy]

I’m with @JLee on my hypertrophy range. Building strength or power is way lower.

Of course 20-30 reps with 315 on the squats once or twice a year will wake up everything.

 

[Dirtnasty]

That’s cardio fuck

Put The Quads Up UGM

Check out this training template @Omegaman and @PHD did. Mucho reps

 

[NeuroRN]

I think more important than a set rep range is Reps in reserve. Like 2-3 from failure with that weight.

 

[Vargas33]

I stick to low weight 20 rep range and to max so if at 20-22 start feeling it burn go 2-3 more reps to failure so 20-25 reps for me . Unless I’m doing like 225 or more then it’s around 10-12 or less

 

[Ominous]

My idea of high is around 20-25.

 

[JB_rD81]

Anything more than 5 is high to me, hahaha… but I like 8-15 on accessory work

[Dirtnasty]

Starts next week this is me

 

[Symarip85]

That’s accurate.

 

[Anabisi]

The warm up should always be in a High range 20 to 25…with The first set should also begin high volume
The pyramid backwards adding additional weight if your a beast yiubdonall sets all weights all 20…get those gains

 

[Dirtnasty]

You wouldn’t like the way I warm up

 

[Anabisi]

You strike me as a elliptical machine warm up kind of guy…I do my 15 min

 

[Dirtnasty]

I just start with plate and and it another doig about 2-3 reps till I’m set before working then take break I don’t have time for propped warm up but it works abs should help
Me I. Comp setting I work to top set in about 20 minutes

 

[Anabisi]

Gotcha …I start off with small weights and keep going higher …been training for a long time so I change it up when I feel plateau

20+ is what I consider to be high reps.
