Agree on the personal preference side of things. But it takes some trial and error... i.e., a little time to reach the conclusions. I generally find myself mixing it up, sometimes in the same workout. The downside to that is that you never get a true sample of what range is most effective over time.my rep range is usually is the same. i guess it mostly depends on what one is trying to acheive. as a female, i am trying to get some extra fat off my legs and it has been suggested to me to increase my rep range to 15 reps for everything except squats. so, im going to try it. squats were still recommend to do 5x5s. i think bis and tris are better with a 12-15 rep range, small muscle group and a lot of damage can be done when one tries to lift them heavy. that bein said, i do occasionally do 4-6 reps with them. i think it just depends on personal preference and what one desire for their body and how ones body responds.
