Hey guys coming to you with another question but this is based solely on shocking the muscle. I've been doing some reading online and other forums about this but am getting mixed answers on it and am wondering what you all think. I've always wondered when its time to "shock" the muscle when it gets use to a routine but i also wonder If you could experience good growth from shocking it almost every time you work that muscle group. Say on chest day one week you do 4 sets of 10-15 reps with a moderate to light weight on all 3 bench (incline, flat, decline) but switch it up next week to a heavier weight and do 100 reps of flat dumbell bench going hard until failure everytime until you hit 100. Just keep messing with number of reps and weight each week while also switching exercises to always keep the body guessing, or if its better to get accustomed to a certain routine for a few weeks then switch it up to really shock it. I've heard mixed things on both and was really just wondering what you all do as far as when to switch a workout or if you never do the same thing more than a couple weeks. Appreciate any feedback I receive on this thread.
