Burnout sets are a classic strategy to maximize fatigue and muscle stimulation, however, they can get boring. If you’re looking for a new way to maximize fatigue and stimulation, give cluster sets a shot. Start with a weight around your 15 rep max and perform 5-8 reps, rest for 10-15 seconds...

A normal drop set involves reducing weight while performing reps to failure. The last set often involves a relatively light weight that might not always maximize fatigue in high threshold motor units. Going back to your starting weight for one more “set” to failure guarantees maximum fatigue in...
