If you didn’t tell us that you were doing a heavy lower/light upper and heavy upper/light lower days, I’d just think it was all heavy work apart from calves, abs and forearms (cupping?).
Or do you mean that your sessions just have different focuses and are not necessarily heavy/light?
Interested to know which movements are stalling.
Yeah I’m a beginner at this so for the heavy days My rep range is around 6-12 and for the light days I heard jp say you can do up to 25 reps on leg movements and it yields equal hypertrophy, cupping is an arm wrestling movement with the cable because I also train arm wrestling but mostly outside of the gym [/quote]
You can do whatever you want to do, but I just asked for clarity. If you like 6-8, 6-10 reps etc and you recover then fab. If you’re stalling then something either needs tweaking or you need to assess whether you’re giving it long enough to actually stall or whether execution may need improvement.
If you do 6-8 reps on heavy legs, do your upper work in 8-15 and just see whether you benefit or even enjoy it.
Re-Cupping…glad you clarified that. 😂
Re: Bench. The rep will come in time, 2 weeks is about 7-8 sessions, so if you’re running 3 variations then you’ve only stalled on 2/3 attempts. [/quote]
Thanks brother -

My bench is stalling, have been stuck on the same weight for about two weeks with no increase in reps , actually last session I decreased a rep , I’m not progressing as much as I should be
