@jeffrey. Yes. If you can squeeze out another rep, go ahead and do it, though.

@Phil. No buddy. 1 x advanced strategy at a time is definitely enough.

@David. On the full-body routine you can extend the 2nd/last set with burn-out sets. Also see the 6 advanced strategies I mentioned in the post.

Would you recommend doing drop sets after you’ve just complete 2 sets of Rest- Pause ? Or just apply drop sets after a conventional 2 sets of 8-12 reps ? Basically, can you put both techniques together for each exercise ?

Cheers
Phil

Personally I’m not a believer in the stupidly high volume routines out there. The average person with any degree of life stress to manage is more likely to struggle training that way all year round, every year. I trained that way for 2 years and people were like “you lift?”. Even now I’m still making up for lost time and only starting to visibly look like I probably lift. Seems completely annihilating my glycogen and amino acid pools 6 times a week isn’t for me, haha.

I tend to think that if a lifter can’t get the job done with 2-4 good quality sets fairly close to failure, it’s probably not gonna happen that workout. I don’t believe it takes 15-20 sets to change a muscle, unless you’ve done everything else before that and run out of other avenues…
