One set x 3 vs 3 sets x 1

[jaycee19]

Hey guys,

Beginner here

Is it better to do 3 sets of one exercise at once, or 1 set of each exercise 3 times

As a simple example:

Bench Press: 3x12 then Incline 3x12

vs

Bench 1x12, Incline 1x12, Bench 1x12, Incline 1x12, Bench 1x12, Incline 1x12

Thanks a lot!

Do bench then incline, or incline then bench

^^^^this. The other way is circuit training, which has its uses but not for strength training.
