Hey guys this is my first blog so bare with me……so i picked up a copy of this month’s Muscle & Fitness magazine and i started to read an article on an 8 week strength training program……the way it works is u start off doin your major exercises with 3 sets of 10 then as the weeks progress you increase ur weight with less reps (same as building mass i guess)…….the whole idea is to achieve around 30% more strength….now I’m  a little knew to bodybuilding I started working out last year but as a beginner I made/make many mistakes in my training and I’m also very impressionable with different techniques and workouts….what you guys think??? I’m gonna give it a shot it starts on November 13th and ends January 10th with a week off on the 7th week…..let me know your opinions I need help lol…..P.S il keep you guys updated everyday on my routine and how I’m doin…….
