Thread: benefits of a light sessions

can you be more specific? do you mean light weight, high reps?

------------------
got muscle?

yes light weights high reps

I do the light thing after my rest week to get back into the grove.

I have read through a workout, where you do heavy upperbody one day, light lower the next, rest one, then light upperbody, then the next day do heavy lower. I haven't tried it though.

If you can't run with the big dogs...don't get off the porch.

Unless you are a beginner, the body adapts very quickly to a certain routine. To keep growing (as it pertains to training) you need to throw something at it once in a while like lighter weight more reps or something like that it's not expecting, sort of like shock therapy. But no matter if your using a heavy weight or a light weight, always adjust the reps accordingly so you are challenging the muscle(s).

If you build it they will come

sound advice thanks!!

For arms I like to go lite and heavy on every work out. One routine were I go heavy followed by a set of light, high rep. Something new I am trying.
