This Week's Top Tip - Use Compound Sets To Bring Up Lagging Bodyparts


The best way to bring up a lagging bodypart is to perform compound sets between each set of exercises. For example, if you're working chest and your calves need more development and are weak, between each set of presses, flyes, etc you would sneak in a set of calves during the rest periods.

This could also work well for developing grip and forearm strength - as the forearms recover extremely rapidly it's worth performing some grip, radial flexion, ulnar flexion, etc. between sets of an arms workout to help speed their development along.
