The 6-12-25 method, popularized by strength coach named Charles Poliquin, is a training protocol designed to increase muscle hypertrophy and strength. It involves three different sets of repetitions for an exercise:
6 reps: Start with a heavy weight that you can lift for 6 repetitions. This challenges your strength and recruits a significant number of muscle fibers.
12 reps: Immediately after the 6 reps, reduce the weight (typically around 50-60% of the 6-rep weight) and perform 12 more repetitions. This targets a different type of muscle fiber and promotes muscle endurance.
25 reps: Finally, reduce the weight again (usually around 30-40% of the 6-rep weight) and perform 25 reps. This set targets muscular endurance and stimulates further muscle growth.
The idea behind this method is to fatigue different muscle fibers at varying levels of intensity, which can lead to greater muscle development and overall strength improvements. It's important to use proper form and have a spotter when lifting heavy weights to ensure safety.
