High sets or low sets? What is better?

We are back in the programming series and discussing the ups and downs of high vs. low sets. If you have a different definition of high sets, don't worry. As always, exceptions can totally make sense in individual cases.

Get yourself the programming course or elite weighted equipment:

Personally I like to work on really low volumes. For all the main lifts I usually do 2 main sets and one back-off set with some modification per session, all of this at rpe 8-9. I saw really good progress with this for the past year.

Another great Video Micha, although none of this information is new to me I'm sure this will be very useful to many viewers .
This is still my favourite youtube series

i do 5 sets weighted pull up in the morning and 5 sets of weighted dips in the evening. I do drop set but only train to failure with my bodyweight and

Personally I do 2 sets at rpe 10 for each muscle group. I used to do 16 sets per muscle group in a session at rpe 9-10 and didn't realize I was overtraining myself too much.

I recently followed the program where basically intensity is at it highest and volume is down for example in a pull day I would do 2 sets of pull-ups taken all the way to failure everything is to failure then 2 sets of rows and 2 sets of bicep curls also some rear delts exercise and that's it. I WOULD LIKE To know what do you think about this program? btw i can just do around 8 pull ups in a row (beginner, just 1 year into the gym)

what are your thoughts on the Ian’s 2 set to failure method for more intermediat? Downside/ups?

But why in ur 1RM EDITION E-book there is just 8 sets per week or 7
Did u change your mind or smt because im in the week 7 and thats will be fucked if i have to back to week one for that🥲
