Try Alternating Sets for Faster Gains and Shorter Workouts

from The Strength Log · host Daniel Richter & Philip Wildenstam

Longer rest times between sets typically mean larger strength and muscle gains. But what if you're short on time? Enter: alternating sets!  Don't know what alternating sets are? No worries, we explain them in the episode, while looking into a new study that compares alternating sets with traditional sets, to see if they are the fastest route to big gains. *** Do you like what you hear so far?
