Using the Rep Goal System And The 6-12 Rep Range

Massive Iron e-book... http://massiveiron.com/store

The 6-12 rep range is a fairly standard hypertrophy range. It's used for challenging exercises and most major body parts.

To turn a set and rep scheme in this range into a set/rep scheme using the Rep Goal System:

1) Take the total sets.
2) Find the average number or reps in your range. For example, a 6-12 rep range yields a 9 average.
3) Multiple your total sets by this average, THEN add 5 to this total.

Example:

--Bench Press, 4 sets of 6-10 reps

4 sets multiplied by the average of the rep range (8) = 32. Add 5 to this number and you get 37. I would probably round down a hair for starters, but it really doesn't matter.

Now you have 4 sets with a Rep Goal Total of 35. This is your total reps for ALL sets, not EACH set.
