Hi,
I've been going to the gym for about 3 months, 3x per week, but without any major plans, just working the muscles in any order. However, I've constantly heard about the benefits of being organized and so I'm going to follow exercise program plan provided here.
I've always heard many pros for doing sets with small reps (8-12) and heavier weight. However, after checking this program, it seems to be the contrary. For instance, it has "Machine Incline Presses", 20 repetitions for the first set, 15 for the other, etc. Could anyone please help me clarify this? I don't want to spend my time doing something that might not be as efficient.
Thanks for your time!

Well first off, pat yourself on the back for making a plan, you will start to see some good gains. The 4 sets that the plan gives you allows for the first one to be a warm up set.
The others follow down. You will see the excersises change from week to week also, that is to shock your muscles and also the excersises don't just target one muscle.
Hope this helps and, good luck.
