Is it okay to follow the general outline for sets with smaller muscles such as biceps and triceps?? For example, 4 sets 4-6 reps, 3 sets, 4-6 reps, 2-3 sets 4-6 reps for 3 different exercises... Because in the sample template it only shows 2 sets for the first two exercises and 1-2 sets for the 3rd for biceps and triceps.

Your arms get so much stimulation from the bigger muscle groups that there really is no need to add more sets. In many cases, it could be too much. And in Power Week, 6 total sets for biceps or even triceps is plenty, especially if you follow the tempo correctly.

The outline Eric put forth for PRRS calls smaller muscles like biceps & triceps to be hit between 6-8 sets; and larger muscles like Back and Quads to be hit with 8-12 sets. |
