If you had to choose only one rep bracket to train in for the rest of your life, what would it be?

Every time I do a poll you choose an answer that's not listed as an option.

4-6 because I lift heavier with those 10-12 and I lower so form does not get blown away.

Holly

4-6

Lyn

7-9

I don't mind higher reps.

I am gonna say the 4-6 range (the lowest I have ever done so far.) When do you only do 1-3? Is that when you are bulking? That sounds awesome to me!

Audrey

4-6 as well

16-20 = :suicide:

1-3 reps is for developing maximal strength.

:sad: before I knew anything, I thought that anything less than 12-15 reps was pointless :oops:

4-6 I like lower reps, but I want enough to maintain my muscles and be strong. That is not in hypertrophy range so much, but I'm okay with that if I could only choose one range.

Patricia

7-9

Me too! I had never done low reps until 10 days ago and since I too am on the "get me out of here faster" side, I would have to say that 4-6 rocks! :dumbbells:

I chose 7-9. I'm not as concerned about maximal strength to have chosen the 4-6 rep range. And anything over 10 reps I consider pretty much high rep. I like lifting in the hypertrophy rep range.

I choose 4-6. Going any higher than 9 or 10 and I just feel worn out and not really that much stronger. This could be largely psychological though. I like the feeling of being able to crank out fewer heavier reps.
