Drop Sets for Mass Gain

www.scoobysworkshop.com In this video we are going to talk about drop sets and an easy way to do them at home.

Its a great technique for breaking thru a plateau when your strength gains have stagnated. Drop sets are a way of going beyond failure but whats interesting is that many of you are using drop sets without even realizing it. What many people naturally do is when they cant do any more reps, they end up doing cheat reps where they use momentum or other tricks to do a few more reps. When you think about it, this is exactly the same as a drop set - just not as safe. Its using tricks to reduce the load on the muscle being worked out, just like lowering the weight does. Another way you might be doing drop sets without thinking about it is by using a spotter. If the spotter is helping you do a few more reps when you cant do any more, thats exactly the same thing as a drop set - they are making the last reps easier for you by removing some of the weight. To the muscle being worked out, all three of these techniques are the same. The difference is that drop sets are safer, more controlled,and dont require a spotter. How much to drop the weight? Try to drop the weight so that you can do another 4-6 good reps, for most people thats about a 30%-40% drop in weight. Now ...
