Hey guys,
I'm currently training without juice (did a test e cycle about 4 months ago) and I've recently switched from taking around 3 - 4 minutes of recovery between sets to around 1 minute.
I've been kind of horrified, the amount of weight I can lift is so much lower since shortening time between sets. Has anyone else experienced this?
For example the first workout I completed in the manner I went from squatting around 245 for reps of 7 or 8 to struggling with 225 for 8 reps.
The reason for the change is that I would like to put on more size and am under the impression that training with shorter recovery times at higher reps (8-12) lead to more size.
I'm 6' 185, typically do a mon/wed/fri spit. 3 sets of 4 exercises for big body parts, 3 sets of 3 exercises for smaller parts.
Thanks for the responses.
