Training is where volume meets intensity. If you want to build muscle, you need to do the proper amount of volume where the sets are challenging enough that you cannot hold a conversation.
When I was training to grow my chest, I would do 13 sets every 3-4 days. Each and every one of these sets would be to near failure. I wouldn’t be able to hold a conversation when I was in the middle of bench pressing. If you’re newer to the gym, maybe you only need to do 6-8 sets twice a week, just make sure they are challenging sets.
Right now, I’m working on growing my calves. I’m training them nearly every day, five challenging sets. I’m taking each and every set near the brink of failure.
