Resistance Training Insights
Optimal resistance training typically involves performing five to 15 sets per week, which can be divided across sessions or completed in one workout. Sessions should ideally last between 45 to 60 minutes to avoid negative effects from prolonged exercise, such as increased cortisol levels. Additionally, the effectiveness of workouts can improve with experience, as better muscle contraction techniques may reduce the number of sets needed for desired results.In this clip
