    what do u mean by totaly body workouts. .Do u mean plyometics? or do u mean lworkingout ur upper body and lower body, in the same day, with exercises such as, bench, miliarys curls, rows, and tricept extensions for upper body, and squats and lunges for lower body?

  2. skinnygainmuscle says:

    @Stifledsubmission By ‘total body workouts’, we’re talking about doing a complete body training sessions each and every workout. (In other words, both Upper AND Lower EACH training session). Yeah – the exercises you mention are a good example of this approach. Thanks.

    What do you think about doing a full for out with heavy weight, 4-8 reps. then burning out at the end with 15-20 plus reps, say 2 sets?

  6. skinnygainmuscle says:

    @Millzy20 Throwing in some variation with higher reps, different lifting tempos etc… can be a great way to avoid “plateaus” in our strength and muscle gains. For pure muscle mass, I’d recommend sticking to maybe 4 sets heavy (rather than 1 set heavy and two sets light). But if aiming for strength WITH more muscle endurance and fat loss, your approach definitely has its place. It really just depends on the specific goals of the training program. Thanks for your question!

    I have always had good success with the heavy weights followed by lighter weights with max-out reps.
