So, I had this question the other day:
“Matt, should I lift heavier weights and do fewer reps, or lighter weights and do more reps? I’m trying to tone up the back of my arms”
Love this question.
And the answer?
– It’s actually less about heavy vs. light.
– It’s more about doing a bit more over time.
Whether that’s:
– A few more reps
– A tiny bit more weight
– Slowing it down to really feel the muscle working (especially on the way down)
(especially handy if you’ve got arthritis or any niggles – slowing it down can actually work better without hammering the joints).
An important part is that your total volume increases (weight you lift x reps you do x sets you do)
The most important thing?
Just. Keep. Showing. Up.
