I just starting benching this week. My friend who just started also told me to do this for a routine:

(20lb.) 1 set, 10 reps
(22.5lb.) 1 set, 10 reps
(25lb.) 1 set, 10 reps

So basically its just 3 sets with 10 reps and of course I do this 3 three times a week, and every other day. Is this method affective? Also my cousin told me to do this method (the Pyramid):

(20lb.) 1 set, 10 reps
(22.5lb.) 1 set, 10 reps
(25lb.) 1 set, 10 reps
(22.5lb.) 1 set, 10 reps
(20lb.) 1 set, 10 reps

So that's 5 sets for the pyramid. I am not sure who to listen to but I would like to find the most affective way to bench. Thanks
