    Hi Guys, I have been doing gvt for the last 10 weeks and made great progress with all lifts but kinda hit a wall now . Should I break now for few weeks from it and start again? Also should I revert back 3x12 sets ?

    What's the goal?

    Build muscle? Get stronger?* What?



    * not that building muscle and getting stronger are mutually exclusive - just that to maximise strength gains you would train differently to building muscle

    To maximise strenght gains now while taking a break from it would you suggest lifting much over what I was lifting when doing gvt 10x10

    Both? Surely increasing the weight from the 10x10 would postively impact both??

    Yes it would positively impact both.

    But there's a difference between having a positive impact and maximising strength.
