How to Build More Muscles in Less Time?
Use this workout routine if you’re short on time:
- For overall health benefits, 30-60 minutes of lifting per week is enough.
- You can gain significant strength with just one heavy set (1-3 reps) per exercise, done 1-3 times per week. Focus on lifting heavy weights in the 1-5 rep range.
- To grow muscles, do 1-4 sets per muscle group per week. While volume is on the lower end, it can still lead to big gains, especially when combined with drop sets and supersets.
