Few Q's

Thx guys, very much appreciated, but let me rephrase the 5th question as i think ive confused you, what i meant is, lets say im at the gym today, how many different exercises should i do for my chest? would 5 be too much? and would the same apply for biceps and other smaller muscles? again, thank you for the replies.

you didnt read the FAQ's

the key to building stength is doing lifts that recruit your body as a unit rather than individual body parts, dont do any lifts for just your chest, do lifts that focus on your chest but still recruit your body as a unit, like a properly performed bench press, or weighted dips for example
 
I am amazed these are the questions you have after reading the FAQs....in fact I would argue that you either are BSing or did not comprehend any of the FAQ contents...

I highly suggest you reread the FAQ. Then I would head straight to the Diet/Supp forum and read their FAQs...at least twice...


Focus on MOVEMENTS. When going about your life do you really focus which muscles are doing what? So in the same way lift so that you're performing lifts that recruit the most muscles. Squats, Deadlifts, Powercleans, Snatches, Overhead Presses, etc are kings for a reason when it comes to lifting. Do not focus so much on reps/sets/etc....focus on lifting heavy weight with good form. Generally to make good strength gains I would stick to reps of 3-5 although in my training I made best gains in the 1-3 rep area with minimal volume and very high load/intensity. High reps or Repetition Effort definitely have their place and you may choose to use them to supplement your maximal effort training.
 
Have you read Elaine Gottschall's book?
