I am doing only one set on many muscles and two sets on some. But I always train to failure.Despite this I still progress in strength on every workout.Low volume = king
>>76675281Works for me. I did four sets of everything for the first 5-6 mos though. I think high volume is more effective for weak noobs: each rep is less mechancal work.
Low volume wins
1 set
I cant stick to a diet on high volume routines for some reason, high volume training makes me insatiably hungry to the point where I gain bodyfat rapidly due to how hungry I become.Low volume doesn't mess with my hunger like that

I have been doing the same weight and reps on lateral raises for like 2 years and my shoulders just keep growing. Progressive overload is for retards just grow your muscles
>>76676052You are loser, bodybuilder. You don't care about strength but only looks. But you are weak like a girl.>I have been doing the same weight and reps on lateral raises for like 2 yearsMaybe you are moving arm faster than before?
yes
>>76675281The "to failure" part must be the primary reason that people don't get visible results even though they lift X times per week for years. For some muscles especially, pushing to failure is really not fun (eg core, I hate training core)
>>76677740Studies say that training to failure is what grows muscles.
>>76678952thats not what anon says though
>>76677740Training to failure is king.

What does "failure" actually mean? Form breaks down? Failure of the muscle to even move the weight?
>>76681611Failure means you lift until you can't move your limbs anymore, you can't lift the weight.
>>76681611When muscle fatigue has completely prevented you from practicing the exercise
Low reps and low sets. To failure. Final training.
ok
Love low volume.
>>76681611Form breakdown, you can't complete not even a quarter of the last rep. YouTube videos for some examples of failure reps faces
