Ok yesterday was gym time. Weight is constant SETS ACROSS. Resting time CONSTANT 120sec between sets. I started experimenting with rep range and going to failure (or 1 rep before failure) on each...

iam still trying to figure out how simple or complicated the "rep range" system is...

i googled around and understood couple BASIC concepts:

1) i should be fatiguing muscles ON EVERY SET...

thanks for giving me the correct term used "Sets Across" or "Straight Sets" as i googled out

so essentially you suggest to aim for "almost failure" on EVERY SET (1,2,3,4) - SCENARIO A) in my post...

Hi

Iam a beginner learning the ropes and establishing my long term excercise routine in gym. For a beginner the amount of advice on excercises and routines (frequency, sets, reps, load) can be...

120 views and no one dares to say if they experience the same thing after HIIT or something went wrong ?

I was excercising TABATA (HIIT - 20 sec excercise, 10 sec rest - 4 minutes total time) doing squats. I warmed up for 1-2 minutes doing jumping jacks and high knees.

iam untrained, i dont...

Gitt66: thanks the diagram gave me more keywords to google

But why do you think iam wasting time with walking ? Its energy expenditure after all so it helps me increase calorie deficit and...

Thanks. I think iam doing what you suggest and more (i add walking as some extra kcal expenditure to have a greater energy deficit every day)

iam confused Serpentarius, which one of these 3 points is "not in agreement" with what you have just said?

A) There is NO CONNECTION between which regional muscles you excercise and which region...

THANKS everybody i guess its safe to close the original question:

A) There is NO CONNECTION between which regional muscles you excercise and which region gets most fat burned.
B) Body decides...

thanks iam trying to be calorie deficit, but my question was more specific if it does matter what kind of muscles i engage in relation to which parts of my body need most fat burning - if i have most...

So in other words you agree with me that FAT gets burned in the body somewhat globally irelevant what muscles you engage. So the theory that to loose the belly fat you should do crunches and to loose...
