Deathcurl;1859975; said:I was up to 18-20 back in my martial arts days. Now, I could probably do about 10, LOL....I had good success making my way up to the 20 with pyramid sets. Start with 1 then rest 30 seconds, then 2 and rest 30, etc. Starting like this will serve as a means of determining your tolerance. Pick a pyramid (ex. 1-2-3-4-5-4-3-2-1) that you can comfortably get up to the top and still do the sets coming back down. Eventually, I made my way up to 20....Just make sure that you can manage the previous pyramid with some degree of ease before starting your next one, whether it be a few days, weeks, etc.
Thanks for the pyramid suggestion!
What do you guys think is a realistic time frame for me to hit 20 given that I can do 17 right now?
