what im trying to say is if i come up with workout A and workout B, do they have to be different sets/rep or could i use a different variation of the exercises in workout A and keep the same set/rep range.
Great question! It's according to your specific goals. There are so many ways to skin this cat and variety is certainly one of them, i.e., you could keep the set/rep same and vary exercises for a few weeks and then try switching it around. Maybe go with 5-7 reps working to failure for a while with 1-1/2 to 2 min rests between sets. Then after about a 4-6 weeks switch to 8-10 reps and 1 to 1/12 min rests. Every couple of weeks throw in some supersets, dropsets, and forced reps, etc. Have fun!

Hey sniperboy102! There are several ways to do this. You can:
1) change up your sets, reps, or weights per workout.
2) do forced reps (a spotter helps with last 2 reps) or supersets as shown.
3) do drop sets (do your set then drop the weight for 2 more reps then drop it again for 2 more).
4) go heavy with low reps one workout and lighter with higher reps the next.
5) i never do the same workout twice in a row. Variety keeps the muscles guessing and progressing. hope that helps!
