  great vid. I have found for 'me' that it is even better to divide it out over 3 days.

  If I'm going only two sets, I'm taking them both to failure. might as well maximize my effort and efficiency in the gym.

  Hi! from South Korea. I really enjoyed your video, so I wanted to share my thoughts.<br><br>My strength had plateaued for nearly a year and a half, but after cutting my training volume by half—or even more—the plateau finally broke, and my performance has been steadily trending upward. It feels absurdly anticlimactic, yet great at the same time. <br><br><br>Since many people have fixed ideas about high-volume training, it’s hard to change that mindset, so I think it takes a very long time to realize this. I feel really fortunate to have realized it now.<br><br><br>South Korea has one of the most active fitness markets in the world, yet high-volume training is still the dominant trend. Many fitness YouTubers also push high-volume training by showcasing their physiques and the progress they&apos;ve made with it. I hope this low-volume approach gains more traction here as well. <br><br>As more people start seeing positive results, I believe the mindset will shift.

  First, have to mention the killer moustache you&apos;re rocking there! Second, I&apos;ve been following a similar lower volume approach for a couple of months, courtesy of the information FazLifts puts out on his videos. 4-6 weekly sets on a 3-4 day full body split has definitely been an interesting change to the 8-14 I was doing on an upper/lower, but that said my lifts have been progressing better than before with less fatigue to show for it. I think one of the key points missed when talking about lower volume is, as Faz notes, how frequency becomes its own variable - bump that up, you can get away with a lot less because each fresh set is a large stimulus, and doing full body routines give you three or four exposures to that per week, whereas doing 4 sets in one session per week gravitates towards &quot;maintenance&quot; low volume. Certainly an interesting trend that deserves more attention

  Everything Mr. Mike Isratel says you should do backwards or be on steroids.
