does short and intense workouts mean more sets and more reps on a short period of time? |

yeah, you get stronger, but your body isnt in a good physical shape. I wouldnt suggest doing this kind of workout unless you play football as a lineman, are going into competitive weight lifting, or just want to not be able to touch the back of your head and be so stiff that people(like me) laugh at you

Ok if you want to bulk up a little, i have found that more reps will do the trick. You don't want to always be maxing out(only every once and a while to see your progress). You especially don't want to do that at first. It will build muscle faster that way.

In the class I am in, we do 5-4-3-2-1. Which is, you do 5 reps at a
weight that you feel comfortable then do 4 reps, 3...etc. You can add
weight as you go down in the number of reps you do, or keep the weight
the same, either way it's a great workout. We do this with both bench
and squats.

If you can do 7 of them, it definitely isn't your max.

Its not how much you lift its knowing how to lift correctly that will build you up.

In the class I was in last year, and will be in next year, we did something similar. The first week we did 3x3, then 5-4-3-2-1, 5x5, and finally 10-8-6. After 10-8-6 you just repeat the process. It seemed to work fairly good. |
