A question about building muscle as well as strength?

Question

i have been told that different exercise routines determine whether your muscles increase in strength or in size or both. how many reps and sets should i do to increase strength. also could you confirm whether the weight i lift should be between 80 to 90 % of my maximum one rep weight.

Answer 1

traditionally, 10 x 10 is the rep set range used for strength training.  But i think thats pretty excessive.  anyways, if you are going for size then you should use drop sets, and static sets

Answer 2

It really depends what muscles you are trying to work...

be more specific.

Answer 3

WEL IF YOU WANNA GET STRONGER THE REP RANGE IS ABOUT 1-6..WELL YOUR ONE REP MAX SHOULD BE AROUND 90%..OR JUST GO TO WWW.BODYBUILDING.COM AND YOU COULD FIND OUT YOUR ONE REP MAX BY A CALCULATOR
