Habits i avoid while trying to build muscles

- Constantly switching workout routines.

- Waiting for motivation to start.

- Doing 4-6 sets per exercise.

- Not sleeping enough.

- Skipping meals/avoiding carbs when on a cut.

- Working out 6-7x a week.

- Overdoing cardio. 

- Trying to spot reduce fat.

- Not resting at least 3 mins in between sets.

Hmm, I'm seeing lots of gains and doing several of those 

E.g. 

4-6 sets regularly 

workout 6 days a week

End workouts w 20-40 mins cardio

That’s really cool
Burning fat and building muscles?

Dumbbells are my go to weights for strength and target muscles

Bench press, squats, deadlifts 
Those will build strength effectively as they’re compound movements

Yah, it's been 10 months of consistent work, but the past month looks and performs like I hit a new gear. It might be because I recently added deloading every 5th week of a cycle

What's your preferred set per exercise to build strength?
