New workout for you to try - the 5/10/20!
Here’s another workout routine for you to try, it’s called the 5/10/20.
For each bodypart, choose 3 or 4 exercises. After doing some warmup sets, preparing for your heaviest working set, do a heavy set for 5 reps. This should be the heaviest weight you can do for 5 reps. Then, after your normal resting time (say a 45-60 seconds or so), decrease the weight and do a set of 10 reps. Finally, rest and do a set of 20 reps. Do this for every exercise in your routine.
What this does is work your muscle fibers in 3 different ways – the first set is a strength set, the second set is the muscle-building set, and the third set is an endurance set.
You can also add one isometric hold after the 3rd set (on each exercise).
Try it out and let me know how it goes!
