No you have not gained more strength if you did many many reps last week, to do the same weight for a few more reps this week. You now might have a greater endurance (which is exactly the point, why to do more and more reps, but you won't be able to deal with much greater loads in a short time. (That means, not as if you went directly to weights that you can only lift a few times, bevore increasing the weight as soon as you can lift it more often, to keep the maximum force input from the very beginning of the set)

It is up to the volume increase and accessory exercises. Treat accessory also as a movement where you add weight. I had a huge PR because i spent a few months working on my core with a lot of volume, adding up to where i lifted 10500kg in one deadlift session. Focus on safety and always dance around the line where you would be exhausted and can barely recover and go a little lighter BUT adjust by the day. Some days are crap, some are great, adjust yourself.

Over the years I've used all of these. And they all work! Now, at 77 I've modified one thing that has allowed me to still work hard. My joints are crap so I've started doing Only two sets per exercise but a min of 25 repos. Probably not for everyone but now I leave the gym with muscles hurting but not joints. Feel fine after the shower. It-s tough though. Mentally you'll want to stop before muscles failure. Old mental failure will get you!

1. More reps until you hit 15
2. More sets until you hit 5
3. Higher frequency (more sessions per week) per muscle group up to 3
4. Increasee training density (decrease rest time between sets)
5. Increase force
6. Decrease weight and increase sets and or reps
7. Add reps to isolation lifts (go beyond faliure)

Try convict conditioning. One arm pullups(biceps, one arm handstand pushups(shoulders, one leg pistol squats, bridging(lower back) and one arm standard pushups. Then add in parkour explosive movements (jumping, hopping, sprints) All free, natural and functional for real world strength.

Consistency is key to any wanted results as long as it is practiced with subtlety. Do not go beyond what you can achieve until you-ve reached strength in technique and proper controlled exercises.

My PE100 class in 1979 at UCSU had us lifting 3 times a week, 3 sets of ten. I put on 20 lbs that year of mostly muscle. SO most of the info in this video seems like it has been around a long time.

My rule is 8-12 reps. Depending on the workout, like pressing or curling movements, If I can-t do 8 reps, it-s too heavy. If I do more than 12, I increase the weight.
