Glad you picked up on the fact that no matter how many intensification techniques like drops and forced reps beyond failure you do, there's only SO much progress you're gonna have handling beginner weights. Everyone needs to realize that if you really want big muscles, you're gonna have to do some heavy lifting. I could take two twins and put one on a pure bodybuilding (cosmetic) program and the other on a strength-specific program, and in two years, the twin who increased his bench/squat/deadlift by 100 pounds each will be twice as thick as the other twin worrying about trisets and two weeks between exercises LOL!
