When you first begin an exercise program, regardless of whether it’s weight training or cardio, your muscles immediately begin to use energy to allow them to work. For optimum health and fat burning, your bodybuilding workouts should consist of both anaerobic, and aerobic training.

Many weight training programs will tell you to do 12 repetitions of each exercise to gain muscle. The problem with that is, this approach leaves the muscles without enough tension for effective muscle gain. High-tension, such as heavy weights, provides muscle growth, which in turn allows the muscles to grow much larger than without hightension, and also leads to a maximum gain in strength. Having longer tension time boosts the muscle size by generating the structures around the muscle fibers, which improves endurance.

The standard prescription of 8 - 12 repetitions provides a balance. But, by only using that program when you exercise, you do not generate the greater tension levels provided by the heavier weights and lesser reps, or the longer tension achieved with lighter weights and more repetitions. Change the number of reps, and adjust the weights to stimulate all types of muscle growth.

There are also those who perform the 3-Set rule, and while there’s nothing wrong with the 3 sets, there is nothing amazing about it either. You see, the number of sets you perform should be based on your goals, and not on some half-century old rule. The more repetitions you do of an exercise, the fewer sets you should do, and vice versa. By using this technique, you will keep the total number of repetitions performed of an exercise equal.

Doing 3 - 4 exercises per group is also not a good idea. Here’s why: Combined with 12 reps of 3 sets, the total number of reps amount to 144. If you’re doing this many reps for a muscle group, you’re not doing enough. Instead of doing too many different kinds of exercises, try doing 30 to 50 reps, so it should be anywhere from 2 sets of 15 reps or 5 sets of 10 reps.
