Pyramid sets are basically whenever you start off with a lighter weight and as the sets progress you increase the weight but lower the reps. The idea of this concept is that muscle fatigue won't occur whenever you are increasing the weight from the starting set and to get more volume in. Do I think it's worth while? -โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € So when dealing with the same volume no matter how you slice it the strength and endurance gained is very similiar. If we were executing a reverse pyramid or "drop set" you could gain more endurance from the extra volume in the hypertophy rep range. โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € IMO, I think they are good if you are bored of the same routine or want to increase some staminia/endurance but these days I basically treat all my sets after my warm up on the same weight as my working set. . . . . .โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € #musclebuilding #buildmuscle #chestworkout #chestworkouts #pushpulllegs #pushday #pullday #squat #squats #glutes #quads #hamstrings #yoga #fitness #mobilitywod #flexibility #physicaltherapy #yogi #bodybuildingย  #deadlift #squat #hypertrophy #legday #workout #yogaformen #physio #irishfitfam #mobilityย  #yogafitย  #iifym #repost ## Stats - **Views:** 0 - **Likes:** 1,792 - **Shares:** 0 - **Comments:** 10 ## Tags yogafit, hamstrings, buildmuscle, glutes, yogi, pushday, yogaformen, irishfitfam, quads, hypertrophy, chestworkout, physio, iifym, mobility, flexibility, squats, mobilitywod, bodybuilding, repost, deadlift, squat, yoga, pushpulllegs, fitness, workout, physicaltherapy, legday, chestworkouts, musclebuilding, pullday --- Copyright (c) Gondola
