![]() ![]() Volume refers to the total number of sets and reps performed, and intensity describes how much resistance (weight) is being used on a given exercise. Some of the biggest key differences between most programs occur in two main areas: volume and intensity. Understanding how to make the right adjustments to these variables can help fine-tune your training to focus on one of many different specific goals, all using the same tool (resistance training) to achieve different results. ![]() You may already know that resistance training programs (and individual workouts) are designed using specific training variables, including sets, reps, load/intensity, frequency, and rest times. You just need to know how to adjust the program to work toward your specific goals. This belief may lead some to shy away from resistance training, while encouraging those who actively seek out building muscle.Įither way, it's important to know that although getting stronger and gaining muscle mass are certainly related and can happen together, it's also possible for a muscle to get stronger without getting bigger.
