My friends always tells me that if I can do more than 12 reps in one set, I should move to a higher weight. Is this good advice?

Edited by QsK ChiLL: 10/16/2013 10:23:42 PMid say it depends. if your goal is hypertrophy, you want to aim for 8-12 reps per set usually but on isolations you can go up to 15 as long as you're feeling it ex on Dips, a compound excercise, i generally do 20 reps of BW my first set, 15 reps BW second set, then 8 Reps+25lbs for my third and fourth sets. BUT on tricep kickbacks, an iso excercise, i usally do 15 reps each arm for 3 sets each. thats just me tho. do whatever the phuk u wanna do
