What would happen

>lifting heavy + sets with low reps = strength gains
>High volume = hypertrophy gains

We know this, but, what if we mixed the two?

What if I did 20 sets of my 1 rep max for every workout?

Would I become strong AND aesthetic as fuck?

You'd be extremely tired and have aches all over your body

Also it isn't about daily volume it is about weekly, monthly and yearly total weight moved.

>how big Jow Forums thinks the difference is between training for strength and training for size

>how big the difference actually is

Can you do 20 sets of your 1 RM? Are you sure that's not your 20RM?

Congratulations, you found The One Weird Trick They Don't Want You To Know About™

What are you trying to say exactly? Are you trying to say the 5x5 is no different to 3x12?

I think he is saying 12x3 is objectively better

When you look into the biology doing singles uses a bunch of different biomechanism than doing moderate weight for reps.

A single rep uses just a burst of atp and doesnt really tap into your glycogen stores like volume work would. I mean it does but its a tiny bit where doing 5 reps would be like thousand times more glycogen used.

So technically if you use less glycogen in a day than you recover, your total glycogen stores have increased AND you had a bad ass workout.

Renaissance(block) periodization used this when i was into the topic. The medium reps medium weight training days were the most taxing on your body because theyre so anaerobic, meanwhile you get to recover from that doing low volume high intensity work.

you miss the point
you can train for strength using higher rep ranges, if you lift to increase your 5x10 weight then you lift to get stronger.

It's a pretty common tactic actually Just remember to be consistent and finish your sets or you'll just fuck yourself out of a workout

Personal trainers hate him..

>Would I become strong AND aesthetic as fuck?
Yes. And you should do both. And people do program both commonly. Eric Helms recommends in his muscle and strength book that if you are training for hypertrophy then 2/3 of your work should be higher reps and 1/3 lower reps and for strength the opposite.

Good post. Would you recommend the RP templates ?

Nice bait, made me reply

>What if I did 20 sets of my 1 rep max for every workout?
if you are able to do 20 singles its not your 1RM, retard.

>1 rep max

When you do a 1 rep max it's 1x1

You just do your 1 rep max multiple times

Aka, 12x1

12 sets of 1 rep max

Are you actually retarded?

You think humans are robots or something, with zero musclr fatigue from set to set?

"Why do 5 sets of 5, if you csn just do 20 sets of 5 with the same weight? Hurr durr" is your logic

It's not your true 1RM if you can do it more than 1-2 times in a single workout.

Don't do it bro, doing high reps got me to where I could do 225 for high reps, I would do 3x45. But when I tried heavy singles i couldn't even hit 250 for a single :-(

>What if I did 20 sets of my 1 rep max for every workout?

you can do one of your max brainlet

I cant tell if OP is trolling or some DYEL that doesnt understand muscle fatigue

That's a lot of curls.

Not even this. It's actually about the ratio of mass you've moved integrated over the elliptical orbit of our planet around the sun and the ratio of mass in our solar system to the mass in the observable universe.

This is how you know OP doesn't lift user. No need to feed the fatty LARPers

Ironically, it seems like sets of exactly 7 reps would be the best of both worlds.

Also, what I just said, but this time unironically.

you would injure yourself pretty soon
