I feel like the Latham one is more of a social gathering place. This may take a bit… I hate rubber weights and that’s all they have there. I hate social gatherings at the gym, groups of kids working out together aka basically just bs’ing or talking on their cell phones or checking out girls instead of actually working out. It’s too clean… god forbid you use chalk there… and I’m not even sure people sweat there. Typical high school aged staff there (from what i’ve seen) with the exeption of one female trainer who is on so much test she has become a man… no bs. The dumbell section is so cramped that I literally almost hit the person next to me in the head with a dumbell last time I was there. Horrible music, but that’s typical with any chain gym like Golds… not sure how I’m supposed to get fired up to some brittany spears while training. That’s all I have time to think of right now… im supposed to be “working”… haha ---

I was always taught to go to ‘positive failure’ meaning that you do as many reps as it takes till you can’t do another one. Typically don’t do that on my first set tho, just pic a weight to warm up with. I think starting with a lighter weight might help you. I do 135 for 12 to warm up, a set inbetween and then finish with 205 for as many as i can (two right now lol). I actually tipically don’t go to ‘failure’ on my first set, just pic a weight. oddly enough, i always have a harder time with the bench machine and can’t do as much as i usually can with free weights. > [@Financial & mortgage peeps click here](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/financial-mortgage-peeps-click-here/44203/9): > > Diet is alot but not all… You can get jacked and cut with a shitty diet, you just cant go on stage and win contests… I dirty bulk all the time.

depends on what your goals are for set/rep wise. size, strength, lean muscle and so on. 5x5’s, 5x3’s, 3x5’s or even 3x3’s are great for gaining strength and thickness. nowdays, 8(-12) reps can even be considered “high” depending how many reps you do, what your goal is and what lb’s your using in your sets since alot of powerlifting techniques have been brought into the workout world more often then they used to be with that said, idk what pjb’s goals are besides to look like a strand of spaghetti ---
