How much sets do you do per body part per week?

Basically the title. I'm doing around 35-40 sets per week per body part and sometimes I think it's too much or maybe it's not enough, so I wanted to ask you guys what do you typically do and what's the best number of sets and reps in your own personal experience.

Thanks for all replies in advance. Have an awesome day!

So I do my cardio, my weight lifting, and my healthy eating yet my face is still fat and does not match my body (especially my double chin). Is there anything I can do to fix this or is it genetics? Thanks!

Difference in training for Modern vs Classic bodybuilding physique

If you look at the physiques of both classic and modern bodybuilders, you can definitely see a difference. Classic bodybuilders such as Arnold and Flex Wheeler have smaller waists, more streamlined legs and different proportions to modern bodybuilders such as Ronnie Coleman.

But what exactly causes this change? What difference in training and diet, or which change in drugs, is the cause of this very visible difference?

I just started a 4day split (rather than 3day full body) that has been giving me crazy gains, but I want to cut.. will I be wasting my initial high gains period?

Or does the initial gains period only get depleted when youre gaining muscle from it? Or does it not exist at all?

I'm worried that i'll waste these mad gains i'm having.. but I want to cut so bad.

Reversing my Upper Body Circuit

So, basically I have a pretty traditional circuit/regimen. In order, chest, back, triceps, shoulders, biceps.

I've been thinking about reversing the order. Any reason to do this or not do this?

One of your dudes helped me learn to deadlift today. Whether he was a Redditor or not, your fellow bodybuilder was an excellent example of the best of your community. Thanks for your help today!

I think that good deeds deserve as much attention as anything else, and today one of your kin did a good deed for me.

I've just started working out (got my gym membership two weeks ago) and I'm still in the "Holy shit I have no idea what I'm doing!" phase of my learning. And what do we do when we have no idea what we're doing? Ask someone!

So I ask the guy doing cable curls (Is that a thing? Because that's what it looked like to me.) if he could help me out after his set. Fella' was probably ten years younger than I am and has arms as big around as my neck, so I kind of figured that he knew what he was doing.

He was very kind to come over and walk me through how to do a deadlift, step by step. He did it on his own a few times for illustration, then watched my a few times as I tried it out. He was even kind enough to not notice that I was struggling just to lift the bar.

Andrew, if you're out there, thank you for your help. The fact that I want to amputate my butt is a testament to the degree of assistance you provided.

That someone could take time out of their schedule to help a total newb lift the bar five times made a hell of a positive impression on me. There are more than a few people like me, big ass belly and little ass muscles, who face no small trepidation at the prospect of going to the gym; so hopefully all of you know just what it means when someone like yourself helps someone like myself with something so simple. I don't know if that's something you encourage here on /r/bodybuilding, or if that's something from the community in general, or if I just caught a good guy on a good day, but thanks!

If you helped someone out and they didn't take the time to show appreciation, let me do what they should have: Thanks for being awesome!

Bodybuilding photo shoot tomorrow need advice

There's a local photographer who made a post on Facebook looking for anything to snap photos of this weekend for fun. I volunteered myself and said he could take pics of me at the gym while I workout. He ended up liking the idea and tomorrow we're meeting at my gym for a shoot. (It's a small town gym and is almost always empty on Saturdays.)

What I'm wondering is what on earth should I do for lifts while he's taking pics for good pumped up freaky photos? I was thinking obviously some bicep blasting, maybe incline bench and dips with a 45 chained to my waist. Is there a go to routine for simply pumping up in front of a camera? I'm not the gym selfie type so this is a little awkward for me.

Thanks for any advice you might have!

Why Bodybuilders Should Do Barre Workouts

The Basics of the Barre

Is bodybuilding your sport of choice?  If you prefer lifting, a workout without weights might seem worthless. But some experts say that barre classes can make your body better.

For those who don’t dance, a barre is the horizontal bar reserved for helping dancers stay on balance during exercises. Over the last few years this ancient tool has morphed into a workout staple with a variety of workouts based around it. In fact, they say that classic barre movements not only enhance your weight lifting workout, but also help prevent injury and improve your overall level of fitness.

Benefits of a Barre Workout

Barre classes require stability skills that you may not have the chance to fine-tune when you’re lifting weights. In fact, trying to maintain balance to execute barre movements can help to identify areas of muscle weakness.

“When you work against the resistance of your own body weight in neutral alignment, the lines of the body and the muscles that fatigue first indicate to the body builder where their current workouts are falling short,” says Michelle Austin, founder of The Fluidity Barre System which is sold online. The fluidity barre is a mini collapsible barre that you can use in your home. Fluidity barre classes are also taught at select David Barton Gym locations around the country. “It is nearly impossible to create whole-body muscle balance through weight lifting alone,” she says.

Nicole DeAnda, National Barre Manager at Equinox also sees benefits for body builders. She says that she often sees men who are hard-core weight lifters step into class. “They enjoy the targeted movements specifically for the glutes,” she says. DeAnda recommends a combo of weight lifting, cardio and barre four to five days per week as an effective approach for maximal muscle development and to experience continuous results.

Barre Workout for Body Builders

You can check out a barre class at a local boutique or health club. But you can also try a workout at home. Grab a sturdy chair or counter top for balance. Then try these exercises developed for body builders by Michelle Austin.

Sculpt Broad Shoulders With Just Your Body Weight

decline pushup

Ripped abs and bulging biceps are great T-shirt muscles, but broad shoulders, on the other hand, can stand out from beneath even the chunkiest sweaters and arguably do more than any other muscles to bolster your physical presence. Use this simple bodyweight program to build an imposing set for yourself.

SEE ALSO: Gain 10 Pounds of Muscle in 4 Weeks

HOW IT WORKS

Bodyweight training has many advantages, the first of which is you can do it anywhere. Second, it’s safe. When you train shoulders with free weights, you can progress faster, but you pay a higher price for sloppy form—namely, injury—and then there’s the fact that the shoulder joints are the most unstable and injury-prone in the body.

With bodyweight training, increasing the difficulty of an exercise can be as simple as adjusting the angle. Raise your feet on a pike pushup and you instantly feel a greater challenge. You can also have more fun; moves like the crab walk may look silly, but they’ll work your shoulders just as well as presses, and you’ll have fun doing them.

SEE ALSOThe 360-Degree Shoulder Workout

DIRECTIONS

Use this program in place of your normal shoulder routine for four weeks. Perform the workouts with at least two full days between them (avoid any other upper-body training in between).

The exercise pair in Day I (A and B) is done as a superset—complete one set of A, then B without rest. Continue until all sets are complete. The routine on Day II is done as a circuit—perform one set of each move back-to-back without rest and then rest 90 seconds. Do as many rounds as possible in 10 minutes. Note that this is the entire length of Day II’s workout (you’re done in 10 minutes).

The Body Image Dilemma for Female Weightlifters

An athlete is going to look like whatever she is.
A common issue encountered in training female weightlifters is that of body image, and more specifically, bodyweight. In our modern, mass-media controlled culture, both males and females are bombarded from pre-adolescence with supposedly desirable body images. For girls, the ideal is all too frequently the appearance of a fashion model. But what does that appearance have to do with a woman who can lift?

I restarted bodybuilding again- but I'm injured!

Hi r/Bodybuilding, I recently started bodybuilding again after having to take 7 months. I was hit by a car on a motorbike (not my fault), dislocated my right shoulder and I have a trapped nerve in my leg where my hip joint is. Anyway, my self confidence is at an all time low and I was at the point of nearly quitting.

This week my physio therapist has given me the go ahead to start exercising and I've been discharged from treatment but I have to be very careful not to aggregate my injuries, weighted squats are currently a no go and shoulder exercises like lat raises need to be kept low weight.

What would you recommend as substitute exercises? Would you recommend jumping straight into cardio to drop some excess fat or stick to muscle building for now?

Full body workouts?

Okay, so i've been lifting seriously for only around a year or so but havent been able to make huge progress as my job requires a lot of cardio/HIIT, and we do this every single morning. In the evenings i like to lift and i am in the process of attempting my first bulk.

My question is, can i bulk on a full body lifting program?

A colleague of mine does this and swears by it but i cant see it being all that benifitial compared to a back/bis chest/tris split etc which is the kind of routine i usually follow.

For anybody interested my lifts are:

BP: 95kg/209lbs

DL:160kg/352lbs

SQ:105kg/231lbs

Body weight vs Body size? (good plan on gaining weight but not size)

I have noticed that some people tend to have a larger and bulkier size but not specifically having that much weight on them. Ignoring the slight variances in genetics like bone weight - are there specific weight lifting programs that determine how will your body size to weight ratio are going to correlate?

I have seen quite a few people that look like normal folks with a shirt on, but that would weight significantly more than people that are actually buffed up. Do rep/set schemes have anything to do with that?

Most of those people tend to lift heavy and low reps from what I've noticed and have very little muscle definition (nor size), while those that lift in 8-12 rep range tend to be bigger and can weigh both much and not so much relative to their body frame.

Does anyone have any scientific data that touches this issue? I am looking to gain weight and muscle definition for strength and power, but not necessarily size.
