Vegan Bodybuilding & Fitness

Hey everyone!

at the moment I'm doing a program looking like this:

- just 1 set per exercise
- 10 repetitions (last 2 or 3 reps should be really hard to do)
- slow movement
- focus/concentration on the trained muscle itself and the overall body-tension
- (full body) program done every second day

(Some time ago I've done a max weight programm with 2 sets each exercise and up to 5 reps)

So what do you think of it?

I think that if it works for you then you should go with it. There is a lot of programs out there and there is a reason for that. Some people respond better to low rep high weight, some to high rep low weight, it all depends on how you react to the work load.

Currently I am doing 4 sets of 4-6 reps of as high of a weight as I can do and so far that is what my body has been responding to the best.

Hello ISETFIRE,

I have done similar workouts that you describe above. Sometimes I use a 10/10 rep count on each rep. I find that these types of workouts have value.

Currently, however, I have returned to more traditional sets, reps, etc. Currently I do 6-8 exercises, hit the major body parts, and use a three set, 8-12 rep scheme. I seem to be improving my body composition, whcih makes me happy.

Take Care,

Over40
