Ok I do 8 sets of 200 lbs bench press (first set I put up 11 reps, 2nd set I put up 6, after that the rest 6 sets I get it up to 5 reps). *All of which is completed in 15 mins* Is this routine enough for me to keep gaining muscle in the designated area or should I add more weight? (I mean doing the same weight from this point on, but gradually increase the reps & sets, would this w/out increasing weight increase muscle size & strenght?)
-Thanks a bunch

NO> If you want to in grease muscle mass you have to go up
in weight. You should try increasing your weight and do your
11 reps. Then drop down on next set and do what your can.
Keep dropping down in weight and continue your sets and
reps. I try to keep all my reps the same. 15 each.
Don't worry what you have to drop down in weight you will
feel the burn. Remember the more reps the better for muscle mass. (Bulk) Less reps strength. (Power lifters)
Hope this helps.
PS. Don't forget those legs. (body per potion always looks better)
