found this routine online. with the sets changing from 10-8-6 reps, should I increase the weight each set as the reps become fewer? is it like a pyramiding program? Workout #1 EXERCISE Set #1 Set #2 Set #3 Incline Bench Press With Barbell - 10,8-9,6-7 Reps Flat Dumbell Bench Press - 10,8-9,6-7 Reps Dumbell Decline Flyes - 12,12,12 Reps Deadlifts - 5-6,5-6 Reps Bent Over Barbell Row - 10,8-9,6-7 Reps Lat Machine Pulldowns - 10,8-9,6-7 Reps Standing Barbell Curl - 10,8-9,6-7 Reps Concentration Curl - 12,12,12 Reps Crunches - 20 Reps Workout #2 EXERCISE Set #1 Set #2 Set #3 Set #4 Barbell Free Squat - 10,8-9,6-7 Reps Leg-extensions - 12,12,12 Reps Military Press - 10,8-9,6-7 Reps Dumbell Shoulder Press - 10,10,8 Reps Side Raise - 12,12,12 Reps Skull Crasher - 10,8-9,6-7 Reps One Hand Cable Triceps Pushdown - 12,12,12 Reps Leg Raise - 20,20,20,20 Reps

yeah. reps go down, pyramid up in weight. Doesnt make much sense to just bench 225x10 then do it x8 or x6 does it? little too many isolations in there for my taste, and i dont really dig the rep/set scheme myself. im assuming your doing this as an A,B,A / B,A,B scheme every week?

Too much isolation and no hamstring work.
