Rep ranges In almost any type of weightlifting program you are using a prescribed rep range. Each of these ranges are generally assigned accordingly for the attributes they build: 1-3) Maximal strength/Power 3-5) Power/Strength endurance 6-12) Strength endurance/hypertrophy 12-20) Hypertrophy/Lactic acid threshold 20+ Lactic acid threshold/Oxidative I see guys all the time bodybuilders only wanna use 6-12. Powerlifters only want to use 1-5. Old people only want to use 20 with a weight they could do for 100. Even experienced trainers want to train in one range then switch or start high and par it down over the weeks. All these versions will work, but there is one best way for the advanced trainer. Train all rep ranges simultaneously, thereby training all qualities at once leading to an all around better athlete.This is part of the genius of the conjugate method used in the westside setup. Every rep range is used over the course of a week. On the heavy day reps of 1-12 on light days 3-25.
