Fitness Guru On… Hard Sets, Soreness, and the Biceps
Resident Fitness Guru David Lee Nall answers our questions on periodization, muscle soreness, and working the biceps while traveling.
1. What is your opinion on periodization, the concept of adjusting weights, reps, and diet, in a traditional routine for fitness?
David: I don’t like to do what some people call easy sets. I want every set after you are warmed up to be a Hard Set! If you are going to do it make it count. As far as adjusting weights, rep, etc. I will always change things up so your body doesn’t know what to expect next.
2. Is there a certain level of soreness you expect to measure the quality of a workout?
David: No you can have a very effective workout without being sore although I am normally sore for 2 to 4 days after a workout my self.
3. When traveling or otherwise without access to free weights or gym equipment, what is the best way to get a bicep workout?
David: I like to bring bands they can fit into any size bag. So do high reps 15 to 50 reps of 2 to 3 different type of curls. You can shorten the rest time between sets and flexing always helps between sets.
