I like how lower volume training is making a comeback. Heres IFBB pro Eric Janicki's leg day with 10 working sets in total.

I am doing too many sets. And not training hard enough. Need to adjust.

Start tomorrow bro

I was following advice from @misraetel when he was talking about maintenance volume, minimum effective volume, maximum recoverable volume etc. And I was aiming for 10 sets per muscle per workout, twice a week - which I thought was close to the maximum recoverable volume. But now, it seems that it would be too much. Maybe I can specialize and do that for a few muscles but not for everything.

@misraetel I think the more you like to complicate it the worse it gets. Just go to the gym, lift progressively heavier shit, rest, EAT MORE and thats it. I never once in my life thought about minimum effective volume etc.

@misraetel I started lifting late, in my mid 30s and I want to do everything I can to gain as much muscle as I can (naturally). I can't help but overthink it.

@misraetel It doesnt matter you're not 60 years old. On the long run the only thing matters is that you show up week after week, lift heavy for whatever sets youre comfortable with and eat enough to grow

@misraetel 🫡🤝

10 working sets while on 10 different drugs isn't a standard we can all follow

Form!!

Fuck does he find trousers that fit

my squat PR is 160 kgs, single rep with good depth. i achieved it when i was 78kg, and shortly after that i tore my acl. now its been 7 months since my surgery, but i wonder if i can ever safely push that much in squats

Damn man that sucks! I had a meniscus tear almost 2 years ago from BJJ and lose a ton of leg size / strength by the time i fixed it. My left leg is still kinda funny sometimes and weaker than the right one.

Yeah man, losing leg mass is sad.

That's hugeeeeee !!

See, this guy is a pro, doing 10 fkn sets. I'm Joe schmo doing 5. It's plenty

find me the one who still has something left after 10

Easiest way to end up in the hospital.

How is 10 sets low volume? 2 sets 10 reps is low volume dude. Increase weight, do 3 sets 5 reps. 10 sets is by no measure "low volume" unless youre spending 8 hours in the gym for some god awful reason.

But each set his time under tension is 8 minutes

Yep so few people get that depth on leg press.

10 working sets and it still looks like a real leg day. i keep adding junk volume when the hard sets were the whole point

Ask him to run, row, jump = useless😂😂😂

this isnt low volume lmao

You want more strength your next leg day click this link for my source

You know I have to say that I really think before that it’s possible to gain this muscle without steroids when I was young. It only shows that a lot of people still believe that this is possible just by doing some lack presses and stuff. But really, you need steroids. LOTS of

Where do you get that wedge from?? I have one bad ankle due to a horrible accident & botch surgeries.

Not a functional thigh. Cant run or do simple things

Holy fuck. Legs are definitely apart of my regime but man. Talk about a CORE focus.

leg day makes stairs look risky
