To save time in the gym and build muscle fast, you want to do the least number of sets that still get you a solid return in gains. Based on current research, it seems likely that 3 sets per muscle weekly are probably enough to maintain your gains and maybe even build a little muscle depending on how inexperienced you are. But 4-7 sets per muscle per week is likely the sweet spot to get the most gains with the least amount of time and effort.
However, if you are going to go with this minimal volume, there are 3 things you need to start applying to your workouts to continue to build muscle or possibly get even more gains than you were before. First, you should be pushing at least 1-2 reps to failure and even going all the way to failure on exercises where it’s safe to do so every single set. Second, since you’re only doing a limited number of exercises, it’s crucial you pick the ones that are most likely to give the most gains. There’s a really exciting area of research called “long muscle length” training. Basically, it seems like some muscles may respond better to exercises that challenge them the most when they’re in a stretched position. And lastly, to really ensure you build muscle fast, you need to dial in your form.
Now, what if you want to make my minimalist workout even more time efficient and take it from 30 minutes down to just 20 minutes? This is where the next 2 time-saving strategies come in handy. First, supersets. These can help you grow muscle fast by cutting your workout time in half. But the key is to use what’s known as antagonist supersets. how long it takes you to catch your breath between the two exercises seems to be important. Keep the transition time as short as possible, no longer than a minute. But that said, supersets will only work if you’re still pushing your muscles close to failure every set.
But if there are any exercises you can’t end up super-setting or would just prefer not to and you'd still like to build muscle fast, this is where the next method can come in handy.
Drop sets. It’s where you do your first set until you can’t do any more reps, decrease the weight, then immediately do as many reps as you can, and continue dropping the weight until you complete about 2 or 3 “drop sets” in total. Now, you may be thinking, “Won't this reduce the amount of weight and reps I can do?” Let’s say you’re doing a set of 10 reps to failure. The first few reps you do contribute very little to muscle growth. It’s only during the last few reps, when the muscles are being pushed to their absolute limit, that the most growth happens. So even though you’re lightening the weight during each drop set, they’re already exhausted from your previous set to the point that every additional rep it does is now far more effective for growth. This is the likely mechanism behind why research has found that drop sets could possibly be the fastest way to build muscle. Now as for what exercises to use this method with, keep in mind during every set you’re training to failure. So you need to use exercises where it’s safe to do so and also really quick to decrease the weight for each drop set.
Now as for how many drop sets to do to build muscle fast, I’d say try to at least match the total number of sets, including your drop sets, with how many normal sets you’d usually do. Lastly, as for how much to lower the weight during each drop set, the study protocols usually decreased it by 20% at a time.
That said, 1 thing we have yet to discuss when it comes to how to build muscle fast is nutrition. You can train far less than someone else but end up getting dramatically better results by simply focusing on your nutrition. If you need help with that, head over to our website at builtwithscience.com for a done-for-you fitness and nutrition plan customized towards you and your goals.

This is really good to know and matches with what I've been doing. I'm older and only started working out a year ago and once I really got into challenging weights I found that I couldn't sustain a double push-pull legs cycle and went to a 5-day split and really cut back on volume. But I could see in my records that I was still making slow steady progress. I just had to be very mindful of recovery times and avoiding further injuries.

Time saving strategy 1: Reduce workout volume Doing 3-7 sets per muscle group per week is the sweet spot to get the most gains with the least amount of time and effort. If you're short on time, you can reduce your volume to as low as 3 sets per muscle group per week and still maintain your gains or even build a little muscle. Time saving strategy 2: Use antagonist supersets Antagonist supersets involve doing two exercises back to back with no rest, one for each opposing muscle group. This way, one muscle group is resting while the other is working, which can cut your workout time down in half. Keep the transition time between exercises as short as possible (no longer than 1 minute) to get the most benefit. Time saving strategy 3: Use drop sets Drop sets involve doing a set of an exercise to failure, then decreasing the weight and immediately doing as many reps as you can, continuing to drop the weight until you complete 2-3 drop sets in total. This takes advantage of "effective reps," which are the last few reps of a set when the muscles are being pushed to their absolute limit and where the most growth happens. Other tips for making your workouts more time efficient Push your muscles close to failure on every set. Choose exercises that challenge your muscles in a stretched position. Dial in your form. Examples of antagonist supersets Bench press with calf raises Chest flies with lateral raises Leg extensions or leg curls with pretty much any nearby upper body exercise Exercises to avoid using drop sets with Deadlifts Squats Overhead press Bonus tip: If you're short on time, you can focus on compound exercises. Compound exercises work multiple muscle groups at the same time, which can help you get more done in less time.

Drop sets Drop sets are a time-saving training technique where you do a set of an exercise to failure, then decrease the weight and immediately do as many reps as you can, continuing to drop the weight until you complete 2-3 drop sets in total. Drop sets are just as effective as normal sets for building muscle, but they can cut your workout time down to a third. Only use drop sets on exercises where it's safe to do so and where you can quickly decrease the weight. Start by doing 1-2 drop sets per exercise. Decrease the weight by 20% each time you drop. Examples of exercises to use drop sets with: Lateral raises Arms exercises Dumbbell chest presses Calf raises Many machine exercises Exercises to avoid using drop sets with: Squats Deadlifts Bench press (unless you have a good spotter) How many drop sets to do: One study replaced three normal sets with one normal set followed by two drop sets. Another study replaced three normal sets with one normal set followed by four drop sets. Aim to do at least the same number of total sets (including drop sets) as you would normally do. How much to lower the weight: Decrease the weight by 20% each time you drop. Nutrition: Eating a healthy diet is essential for building muscle, even if you're using drop sets to save time on your workouts. I hope these takeaways are helpful!

The best shape I've ever been in was when I did something similar, mainly because it lowered the time commitment to the point where I didn't "dread" going to the gym knowing it'd be a 90-minute thing. I'd hypothesize that consistency was the key. Because I used antagonist supersets and drop sets for many of my workouts, my volume was higher while keeping the time low .. those become an issue in many gyms that are overcrowded as you can't reliably transition (unless you can do them at one station).

For the last couple years I've been doing a 3-day full body split for a 3x8-10 focusing on compound movements (deadlift, squat, bench, shoulder press, bent over rows) and I've seen the best growth in both size and strength than when I was doing any other split. So the whole "less is more" is a good concept to look into for lifting.

almost exactly the same for me. Was doing PPL and was destroying myself but was recovered long before the next workout. Swapped to 3x Full body and I can function as a human between workouts and I'm hitting my priority groups 3x per week for minimum 9 sets. I add in Isolations for super sets and try to keep the whole thing in Zone 2. 45m in-and-out and I should be able to keep lifting indefinitely.

​@@robzar6140I don't know what you mean by "regular separated" but before I started doing a 3-day full body split, I was doing a 5-day Pull Push Legs split. The reason I changed was because I quit my commercial gym and built a home gym. So I have a lot less equipment available. I already listed my routine in my original comment but here it is again. I like to put most of my focus on functional movements (pushing, pulling, picking things up, lifting things, raising things up high). I do Deadlifts, then squats, then bench press, then shoulder press, then bent over rows. All barbell movements. Sets and reps stay around 3x8-10 for more hypertrophy. Sometimes I'll go 3x6 to put more emphasis on strength. I recently acquired a cable attachment and a landmine so I'm looking to incorporate some more accessory movements. During warmer months, I want to fit in some farmer carries as well. I'm using a Rep Fitness 1100 series rack with their basic adjustable bench and cable attachment. My landmine is from Synergee Fitness.

Good stuff. The only downside of drop sets is you end up hogging a bunch of dumbbells. A better alternative for dumbbells are Myo rep sets. Take the first set to technical failure, and then wait 10 seconds and your next set has to hit the same number of reps. You'll fail a couple of times, so take 5 second rests each time and then keep going until you hit that number. This does the same thing as drop sets, where you approach failure a bunch of times, but you're using the same weight. "Number of approaches to failure" is the key metric to muscle growth, because that's an indication of high muscle tension.

But I can't decrease by 20 % 😭, The weight I have now for example for consentration curls is at 8kg if I go down 20% tha t is 6.4 ( I don't have weights that give me precisely 6.4 so it ends up being 6 kg) then 20 again?? so that is 4.8 kg again I don't have weights to give me accurately 4.8) I have 4 1.25kg, 4 1kgs and 4 2.5kgs including the bar which weighs i think 2 kgs (I only do unilateral exercises) Now what do I do as genuinely I was going down each time with 10% not 20% and trust me I tried and sadly at a certain weight like 4 kgs I DON'T FEEL EVER STRESSED IN MY BICEP. So now what? Standing dumbbell presses: 10kg (one shoulder first then switch) then it goes to 9 then 8 then done Bulgarian split squats: 18kg (one leg first) then 16 then 14) I did go to 20% as well here again I DON'T FEEL TIRED OR STRESSED ENOUGH Hammer curls: I do 7kgs now then 6 then 5 (one arm each) so going down with 20 will be 5.... then 4...... This sucks, I was counting on the 20 % off, but sadly after nearly 8 months of lifting I don't feel like I am at a weights where I can go 20% down and still feel tension and enough stress, unless today I just bump up that 18kg bulgarian to 22? and the standing dumbbell press to 12? and the consentration curls to 9?? and 8 hammer curls? Please anyone have any ideas? By the way as you can read I do drop sets, no rest or as little as possible. And with the bulgarian split squats as of now I can only do I think 12 first set maybe 13 reps (squeezing muscle or try too and go 3 seconds up and 3 seconds lower) but on second set I plummet too just 5 reps?? and then my third I get maybe 4??? Seriously it is annoying to be haunted by that doubt where maybe I am waisting my time all along (8 months ruined) The same is said for my other exercises although I believe I get very close to 9 reps on all 3 sets (bonus being it feels like it was stressed out, enough I am not sure) Edit: this is how I structured my workout now: Bulgarian split squats: Set1: 23kg: four 2.5kg, four 1.25kg, four 1 kg Set 2: 18kg: four 2.5kg, four 1kg Set 3: 14kg: four 2.5kg Standing shoulder presses: set 1: 12kg: four 2.5kg, two 1kg Set 2: 9kg: four 1.25kg, two 1kg Set 3: 7kg: four 1.25kg, Concentration curls: Set1: 10kg: four 2.5kg Set 2: 8kg: four 1.25 kg, one 1kg Set 3: 6.5kg: two 1kg, two 1.25 Hammer curls: Set 1: 8kg: four 1.25kg, one 1 kg Set 2: 6.5kg: two 1kg, two 1.25kg Set3: 5kg: three 1kg

@@CHAlVlELEOlV Something I Realized when I started again a half year ago, is that I was using too little weight. Maybe that's part of what's going on here? I'd suggest going to 10kg on the first set (if not all) and maybe don't worry about drop sets for now. If I were in your shoes I'd try raising the weight and using the preacher bench if you have access to one. I use that and overload the first set (I can do 6 max effort and even need to cheat on some), and focus on the negative. I drop to my working weight for 2 more sets, as many as I can which is around 12. Another key is to remember to flex the muscle at the top. Alternative is putting your back and upper arms against a wall if you don't have the bench. You can also put more weight on and do cheat curls to get the negative, then go to your working weight. Yet another idea is to do regular curls until exhausted, then just lower your arms and don't release the bar for your break. Wait about 10 second or whatever, then do the same amount of reps, you can't put the bar down until you get them. The major things in my experience is 1) use slightly more weight than you think you can 2) pause slightly at top and bottom, flex at top 3) focus on the negative! A LOT of strength comes from the negative movement. If your muscles aren't tired dropsets likely aren't helping. You could also look up Jeff Cavaliere's 21 days to bigger arms video, I found it good at tiring the muscles out

did you even watch the video? he literally says (which is supported by the science) that this method is less than optimal and should only be considered if you want to really save time in the gym

Mike mentzer was a load of bull shite....nobody has or ever will build a body with that training method unless you are on chemicals....period!!!!. If you disagree, then prove it with your video and training changes....😮

​@@Hosppe Then he is completely wrong. When I started train by Mentzer program (and at first I didn’t believe in it), I gained more in the first three months than in the entire previous year. And I continue to gain now by doing only one set per exercise, training one muscle group once every two weeks. The point is that multi-set programs are absolutely useless and only lead to overtraining (of course, unless you are on steroids).

@@Leo_NikoI think switching up your routine is also good for muscle growth, because your muscle has to adapt and grow to support the new routine- but also whatever works for you is best so maybe that routine is great for you but not other peoples muscles

I've been doing the complete opposite of this for over a year now following the Body By Science and Mike Metzner's methods of focusing on the static hold and slow negative reps. Gained 30lbs of muscle and was thrilled that something with 30 minutes of training once per week did all this to that extent. So at this point I am looking for a fresh approach so I will give it a try ....thx

Hi Jeremy, how do you think doing sets of dropsets would work? Like a regular set, followed by 2 dropsets then rest and again 2 more times? Would it be meaningless or is it worth the time loss?
@thesoundmajors9858
@thesoundmajors9858 6 ай бұрын
Why would you do three drop sets for one exercise? For one drop sets are used to squeeze out any additional reps and serve really as an ender. Secondly, having 3 drop sets which would be the equivalent of six sets goes against the first strategy of minimizing volume due to lack of growth when the number of sets goes up lol
@LouisSerieusement
@LouisSerieusement 6 ай бұрын
some sort of myoreps are far more interesting than drop set in my experience. Superset is also great, like you do 1 set of shoulder or chest press, then 1 set of curl, and you rest 1 or 2 minutes, then you repeat 3 times (for example)

When dropping weight for the dropsets, do we go down by 20% of the original weight each time or 20% of the previous set? For example, if we do three sets starting at 100 lbs. is it 100/80/60 or 100/80/64?

Amount of sets is relevant to which body part in general , I.e. 10 sets a week for bicep a little more achievable that squats. Also weak body parts need more work. Then there is age of the lifter.

@JeremyEthier some other research claims you will have better results by resting enough time (e.g. 2-3 minutes) between your sets rather than resting less time (e.g. 1 minute), because it means more volume, which means more gains. Is this now rendered obsolete? Or is it still true? But if it is still true, it kinda negates the fact that dropsets would be as efficient as normal sets, since they are basically "normal sets with rest time pushed to the minimum"

Well, I find rest between sets is the big time for me. On some exercises I'm no less than 5min. If I just wait 3 minutes vs 5, I definitely loose 2 resp on the end, which are - according to this video, the most important reps.
