How to Increase Workout Intensity




Q: I am competing in my first bodybuilding show in a couple of months, what should I do to crank up my intensity in the gym?

A: Here is a great way to increase your intensity, especially when preparing for a show. Complete a drop set on the last set of every exercise you perform. For example, if you are performing the bench press and you are on your last set of 225lbs for 8 reps - Immediately upon completion of your set- drop the weight to 135 and perform 8-10 more reps. This will really saturate the muscle with blood. Another example - you are performing alternating dumbbell curls with 40lbs for 10 reps each arm, after these reps are completed- instantly drop the weight and grab 20lb dumbbell and perform 8-10 more reps each arm - if you can do more do more. Get ready for the pump of your life.
