    I normally do four but I want to cut down less. I want more time for recovery, especially if I'm doing such low reps.

      Jake- i say cut out a lot of the exercises. Incline, a lot of the bicep excerises. All you need is two sets of bi excerises. I will post a routine that i have tried and got good results from when i get home, i'm at school right now.

        Why would you cut out inclines Tom?

          yeah, inclines are mad important.

          If there's any sort of bench work that can be cut out, it's declines, since weighted dips achieve the same thing and are better mass builders and you don't get a rush of blood to the head.

            Oh, I agree that not so much needs to be done with bis - BUT you definitly need more than 2 exercises, preacher cambered/regular curls are good for mass, bd curls are good for striation (added supination for forearms and brachialis), hammers are good for forearm and brachiais.

                  Inclines aren't important to increase strength at all.

                      oh, you usually weight 2-5 minutes between sets

                      also once a month try your max,

                      2x3 a@40%
                      3 @60%
                      1@80%
                      wait 5
                      1@95%
                      wait 5
                      1@100%
                      wait 5, etc etc, until you get your new max. and once you can do 6 reps increase weight as little as you can,
