Hello LWL!
I didn't have time to plan my workout and didn't take my little notebook to the gym, so I decided to do a full body workout, using as many different machines/exercises I could think of!
I did just one set on each exercise, of 6 reps, but the 6th rep was pretty gruesome, teeth gritting, face pulling etc!!!
I feel like I've had a good workout, but is this effective or is there something somewhere that says the 3 sets of 6 reps is optimum since it takes a while for your muscles to realise what you're doing???
BTW I did plenty of exercises per body part, eg overhead db press AND front raises. I also did lat pulldowns, and rows and assisted pullups etc etc.
What are your thoughts?
I probably won't do this kind of thing every time I go to the gym, but it was interesting and made a change!
