 There are many articles in magazines, in books and the Internet about how many sets and reps should be performed for a muscle and almost every single person who exercises and every single personal trainer will all have different opinions. This does not make the information right or wrong, it simply means that you will have to find out what works for you because everyone and every source is most likely to be different.

Some people and sources will say to do high-reps ( 15-20 ) to get ripped and to burn fat while others will say to do low-reps ( 6-8 ) to get your muscles bigger and others will say to do moderate reps ( 10-12 ) to build and maintain muscles. This is again mostly opinions of people and sources so again you will have to find out what works the best for you.

As for sets some people and sources will say that a total of 6 sets is enough for Biceps while others will say to do as many as 12-15 total sets for Biceps and some will say 9 total sets is fine but again the fact is you will have to figure out what works the best for you.

Whatever workout routine you choose to do you should know when too much is too much and when not enough is not enough. That means that you should be aware to not over-train and you should look into the signs and symptoms of over-trainingand if you feel that you have not been doing enough or that you have been being real lazy in your workouts than maybe you are not doing enough and you should reevaluate your workout routine. Also it is probably best to lift both heavy and light weights and to perform both high and low reps because the only way muscles will grow is to keep hitting the weights and keep your muscles guessing. Too get ripped and tone you will have to burn fat so your muscles will show, end of story. So remember this, weights to build up muscle, treadmill ( cardio ) to get ripped.
