Giga Gymcel Trait : Your Program Has Over 30 Sets per Workout or Over 150 Sets per Week

Stop it. Do less.

Unless you’re enhanced or advanced.

why

 

[Deleted member 23778]

Have seen better results from 3 set workouts than 5+ sets

 

[thecel]

why

Very few guys can handle turbo-high-volume workouts without sandbagging their intensity. They don’t exert full effort in the earlier exercises so that they still have energy left to get through the later exercises.* The guys who can handle turbo-high volumes are also better off doing less volume until they hit the advanced stage; they can spend 50% of the time in the gym and get 90% of the gains.

*Some guys can’t handle high volumes but do use full effort (they don’t sandbag), so they’re using baby weights by the end of their long-ass workouts because their muscles are fatigued to shit. Lots of these guys are inflicting excessive muscle damage for no hypertrophy nor strength benefits.

whats sandbagging

Teabagging but the ballsack is unshaved, which makes it rough like sandpaper.

Brutal short-thread-lifespan pill. Members are lifting weights instead of browsing .org.

If u push hard enough u wont be able to do 30 set per workout. So basically 150 set but with little to no results. Huge amount of time down the toilet.

Because this thread was pure H2O

just dont do junk volume, around 3 sets per exercise is good as long as you reach muscular failure.

 

[traveler]

legit

but most users on off topic dont lift so its not relevant to them

 

[Clown Show]

Start with compound exercise, go heavy for 3 sets 6-8 reps to real failure, the jerk off till the end of the training with some isolation volume, and that's it.

 

[User49]

The guy that introduced me to the gym is like this

PPL 6 times a week, never misses a session. Insane volume and stupid brosplit exercises, think OHP, Bench and then front raises just to be sure...

When we started his squat and deadlift was 50kg higher than mine and I've almost cought up to him doing fullbody 2-3x a week.

I don't track macros or calories, but I eat pretty clean.
