You lift more like you're lifting for efficiency rather than mass...

It's just that I saw a lot of single reps in your workout. I haven't gone less than five in years but there is nothing wrong with efficient lifting, I peronally think that longevity in bodybuilding may be put at risk as these heavy lifts thake their toll. I certainly do and recommend compound lifting but a) not all the time and b) at rep ranges of between 5 and 15... Technique is the most important thing as well... Don't get me wrong, like I said if effidiecy is more important and there is no reason why it wouldn't be then do some singles here and there.

I usually rotate from lower reps with heavier weights to higher reps or slower greater TUT reps. Today I had no chalk or straps so there was only so heavy or so many reps I could do before grip failed. Also this workout took under an hour so rest periods were very short. Next deadlift day Ill go all 6-15 reps. Thanks for your input

You are going to experience growth either way, I am just saying that a lot more of your focus seems to be on efficiency that it is with me. That ship sailed away as I got older and it is not even something I can even consider as I would just get to the point where I could not work out at all. You can mix the two no problem. Just watch your joints.

Thanks for the input man with your experience any advice is like gold. Joints a good except flat benching occasionally doesnt feel too good on the shoulder if im going under 5 reps. But I try to stay away from flat prefering incline/decline dips and dumbells as I feel it better activates chest muscles

There is never really a really good reason for a bodybuilder to go sub 5 reps, does more damage than it does good. You can work power from 5 to 8 reps.

That sounds good to me. So ill rotate my workouts from 5-8 one session to 8-15 next session. Thanks DW you da man!!!
