switching to bodybuilding high reps

[Miaero]

I’ve been a power lifter for many years and now I want to switch to focusing on high repetition and bodybuilding instead.
The reason for this is I’m getting really annoyed on heavy days the only with a lot of injuries and pain. Do you recommend I go to more 10 or 12 rep range for high repetition or should I go even higher?
Previously I was doing no more than four to six reps

Poor form = injuries

Bros always use proper form that's the key

don't train to failure train intense though

 

[Vadim Fedorov]

if you really strain yourself on that last rep you can cause a problem

my philosophy is going eight reps that's the perfect amount at 60 or 70%

 

[JasonPriest]

I would stick to 10 or 12 reps I think that's perfect

slow and steady growth is always good......fast and unsual hikes often comes with risks........

15-20 reps is a solid range!
