If you do 2, 3, 4 PROPER sets for a given muscle group per week, it’s probably not going to grow If you do 5, 6, 7 PROPER sets for a given muscle group per week, it’s probably going to grow at a solid rate If you do 8, 9, 10 PROPER sets for a given muscle group per week, it’s probably going to grow as fast as possible Trouble is, you cannot prescribe 8, 9, 10 sets for EVERY muscle group because there is a cap on the TOTAL amount of work you can do Thus, you can opt to program for balanced development all at once OR you can prioritize/deprioritize muscle groups for a period and then shift that over time

Sets per muscle group: - For balanced development, you’re going to want to perform 5, 6, 7, 8ish sets per body part per week - If prioritizing a muscle group, you’re going to want to perform 8, 9, 10, MAYBE 10+ sets for that body part each week - If deprioritizing a muscle group, you only need 2, 3, 4ish sets for that body part each week to maintain existing development Obviously, if you are training a muscle group 2x per week (which you probably should be) you would just half these figures and you’d have your average per session volume — NOTE: It does not have to be a perfectly even split is spreading the work across 2 sessions

You can literally train less while growing more I train half as much as my peers and grow faster than any of them They do 10-20 sets per muscle per week... I do 4-6

Example of a true working set... You’re probably doing way more sets than you need Trust me ⁠ Back in high school and college, I would lift 7 days a week, doing anywhere from 30 to 50 sets per day I used to think those 30-50 sets were the key to growth, but over time, I realized that most of those weren’t true working sets ⁠ Here’s the thing... If you can do 4 sets of 8 reps with the same weight each set, you’re probably not pushing yourself hard enough A true working set should leave you near failure within the target rep range ⁠ For example, let’s say your plan calls for 2 sets of 6-8 reps After a few warm up sets, you try 135 lbs and hit 8 reps, but you know you could have done 6 more That’s still a warm up set since you’re not reaching failure in the 6-8 rep range You’d then go up to 145 lbs and aim to fail around 6-8 reps If 145 still feels too light, that’s another warm up set You keep going up in weight until you find the load that challenges you to fail within that 6-8 range If you don’t have a spotter, leaving one or two reps in the tank is okay ⁠ This is where true muscle growth happens, by pushing close to your limit Sleep and diet is actually where muscle growth occurs but you never push yourself hard enough in the gym and give your body a reason to grow, hypertrophy will never happen The gym is just the stimulus to give the muscle a reason to grow We then get bigger through sleep and diet ⁠ Back to the working sets... For example, in the video, I hit 540 lbs for 8 reps on this hack squat Looking back, I feel I had one or two reps left, but it’s a solid starting point and it was a new PR for me at the time The next week, I would aim for 540 for 9-10 reps or bump up the weight to 545-550 and try to hit 8 reps aka progressive overload ⁠ I typically keep my quad and hamstring workouts separate and do only about 4-7 sets per muscle group, but each set is intense, and I’m struggling by the last few reps on each set ⁠ Give this approach a shot, and I promise you won’t need nearly as many sets as you think

If you want to actually train your Chest as efficiently/effectively as possible instead of WASTING YOUR TIME…. I’d recommend doing something like this each week: Upper A - Incline (Clavicular Pecs) Machine Press x 2-3 Sets - Pec Fly Machine x 2-3 Sets Upper B (Performed 3-4 days after Upper A) - Flat/Seated (Sternal Pecs) Machine Press x 2-3 Sets - Seated Low to High Cable Flys x 2-3 Sets This will result in you doing somewhere between 8-12 sets of direct Chest work per week Low likelihood you need any more volume than that to improve your Chest mightily if following the notes below: 1) The ideal rep range to be using when performing the exercises mentioned is the 5ish to 10ish rep range — Choose a weight you can do for 5, 6, 7 reps @ 0-2 RIR…once you can do that weight for 8, 9, 10ish reps, increase the load by 5ish pounds 2) You should perform all reps of all the listed exercises with a controlled (but not overly slow) eccentric and an explosive (but still controlled) concentric 3) You should perform these exercises very early in your workout to ensure they are as efficient/effective as possible — If you perform them later on, you will not get as robust a growth stimulus from the sets because of the outstanding fatigue that will be present from the earlier sets/exercises in your workout Additional notes: - You may sub any of these exercises for comparable exercises due to preferences and/or equipment availability — Ex: Flat/Seated Machine Press subbed for Flat Smith Machine Bench Press or Flat Barbell Bench Press - I probably forgot something that I should’ve mentioned…if I think of it I’ll drop it in the post below

This would actually be THERAPY for most people’s Lower Back If you sit at a desk 25, 30, 35, 40+ hours a week, find a way to get access to this machine Do it 1-2x a week 2-3 sets 5-10 reps 1-2 RIR Lower Back pain is all but 100% sure to be a THING OF THE PAST if you do

This right here is the BEST Arm Workout you can possibly do: - 2-3 sets of each exercise shown - 5-10 rep range - take all sets to failure or close - repeat every 72ish hours If you do this for 10 years while nailing your diet and your Arms aren’t jacked…it means they were never going to be jacked no matter what

Here’s EVERYTHING you need to know about warm up sets: Most people are doing warm up sets ALL wrong and they’re costing themselves from an efficiency/effectiveness standpoint as a result Warm ups are designed to A) guard against injury B) prepare you for your working sets Warm up sets should NEVER be taken in close proximity to failure…most should see you leaving 6, 7, 8+ reps in reserve (the lone exception to this = sets performed for 1-2 reps @ ~90+ of your intended working weight) This is in STARK CONTRAST to working sets which should all end around 0-2 RIR You probably need about ~2 warm up sets before your first exercise or two depending on the specifics of your programming Here is an example of a typical warm up protocol: - a 5-10 minute brisk walk on the treadmill (optional) - 50% of your working weight on your first exercise for ~12 reps (mandatory) - 75% of your working weight on your first exercise for ~6 reps (mandatory) - 90% of your working weight on your first exercise for ~2 reps (optional) After you complete the working sets for your first exercise, you may want to repeat the last 3 steps prior to performing your next exercise IF it is an antagonist exercise (Ex: Lat Pull-Down after Sternal Pecs Machine Press OR Seated Leg Curls after Hack Squats) After that, you probably don’t need any additional warm up sets unless you are just using them as “primers” (sets to make sure your movement pattern / the machine settings / etc. are on point) - If doing a PUSH workout, I’m probably using 2-3 warm up sets before my first exercise only (assuming it’s a multi joint movement) - If doing a PULL workout, I’m probably using 2-3 warm up sets before my first exercise only (assuming it’s a multi joint movement) - If doing an UPPER workout, I’m probably using 2-3 warm up sets before my first exercise and 1-2 warm up sets before my second exercise (assuming they’re antagonist multi joint movements) - If doing an LOWER workout, I’m probably using 2-3 warm up sets before my first exercise and 1-2 warm up sets before my second exercise (assuming they’re antagonist multi joint movements) - If doing a FULL BODY workout, I’m probably using 2-3 warm up sets before my first exercise, 1-2 warm up sets before my second exercise, and may even 1-2 warm up sets before my third and fourth exercises as well (assuming they’re all multi joint movements — antagonist push/pull movements for both upper & lower) (As you can see, the major downside of FULL BODY workouts is often the excess warm up time needed — this is why they work best for beginners much of the time) General rule of thumb: If your first set of an exercise is NOT your best set of that exercise in terms of performance (assuming we equate RIR), you are NOT warming up properly You should see a fall off in performance as sets transpire on a given exercise…this is a feature, not a bug of productive/effective resistance exercise WHEN WARMED UP PROPERLY

How to choose the right weight for your working sets in the gym - You can weight select on a set by set basis - If you’re hitting or exceeding the high end of the rep range, you can/should increase the load even if this means it doesn’t stay uniform on a given day - If you’re falling below or you believe you’re in danger of falling below the low end of the rep range, you can/should decrease the load even if this means it doesn’t stay uniform on a given day - Weight does NOT have to stay uniform across your sets of a given exercise on a given day but you should have a good reason for adding or reducing load Ideal rep range = 5-10ish All sets should end as a result of you hitting failure or your RIR prescription (0-2ish) Is this the ONLY way to train effectively? NO! Is it the most efficient/effective way? YES…or very close

Trump to a right-wing influencer: "Do you know the name of any of the funders? Do you know the names? Because if you do, I'd like you to give them to Kash or Pam or Kristi as soon as you can. That's all of you. Because you probably know the names. These are people that do not have good intentions for the country. That's treasonous, probably."

You can trick your body to lift more than you normally can Because of this, I do it every session on my personal training, which I’ve shared through my Super Set program. It’s called Post Action Potentiation (PAP) and it’s a temporary state where your muscles and nervous system are activated and operated in a heightened state It’s all about ramping up to reach this state and I use 3 steps to get there. Stage 1: bodybuilding exercises, low effort and longer durations. Think bicep curls, reverse flys sets of 12-20. Perfect for the first exercise/set scheme of the day. But it’s not enough to get to that true state of potentiation. We need more. Stage 2: You’ve got some blood flowing, you’re warm up and starting your primary exercise of the day like bench press. Your warm up sets are ramping up with low to moderate weight paired with high effort. This starts really recruiting those bigger stronger type II motor units. Remember you don’t need the reps near failure to recruit type II motor units, you just need effort. Stage 2 is great but we can go even deeper Stage 3: These are the working sets. You are pairing heavier weight with high effort. The magic is doing it without taking on fatigue. My programming and coaching notes guide you. Each set sets you up for the next, allowing you to end on a max set of some kind. Then every exercise and set after that you’re able to lift more than normal. You’ve reached this state of potentiation and you ride the wave down Super Sets uses 2 more secondary strength exercises followed by single joint bodybuilding exercises. We squeeze the juice completely The training split for Super Sets is one muscle group per day, you can run it 4-7 times per week.

Up to 30% of the weight lost while dieting can come from lean muscle mass—but the right training and nutrition can help you preserve muscle, which is key for metabolic health and reducing the risk of sarcopenia. You can lose fat and gain muscle at the same time—a process called body recomposition—if you train and eat strategically. The most important factor is resistance training. Lifting heavy 2–3 times per week is essential for maintaining and building muscle while losing fat. Without it, muscle mass inevitably declines. Nutrition also plays a major role. Eating in a slight calorie deficit—around 10–20% below maintenance—allows for steady fat loss without sacrificing muscle, energy levels, or training performance. Protein intake is another key priority. Research shows that consuming 1.8 to 2.2 grams of protein per kilogram of body weight per day is optimal for muscle retention and growth during a calorie deficit, and going even higher may provide additional benefits. Beyond training and nutrition, recovery is just as crucial. Adequate sleep, stress management, and tracking progress help ensure you’re making real, sustainable changes. Get this right and you have a powerful strategy to build muscle and lose fat. If you want to learn more about optimizing body recomposition, improving VO2 max, and enhancing brain health, tune into the latest episode of the FoundMyFitness podcast, where and I break it all down with insights from top experts.

Most strength programming advice sounds complicated. Percentages, periodization blocks, readiness scores. And some of it is worth knowing. But the framework I always return to for strength, speed, and power has been around for nearly a century: the “3x5” protocol. This is how it works: 3-5 days per week 3-5 exercises per session 3-5 sets per exercise 3-5 reps per set 3-5 minutes of rest between sets The range is not a prescription. At the low end, it’s 3 exercises, 3 sets of 3, 3 days a week; you're looking at roughly 20 minutes. That is the entire program, and it works. At the top end, 5x5 at real weight, you're doing something genuinely brutal that most people shouldn't, and probably can’t sustain for long.

You think it’s better to work 40 hours a week and spend another 5 commuting and another 5 showering + getting ready for work every single week than make a few sexy videos in lingerie? If given the opportunity, you’d do “the right thing” and “save yourself” for a dude? LOL okay.

What matters for building muscle in the gym: • Mechanical tension • Number of hard sets • Training at long muscle lengths Outside of that... the world is your oyster as to how you do it You just have to show up And remember: At the end of the day, hard training and consistency are what matter most
