I don't think it has anything to do with what type of exercise you use. If you want more tone, you eat less calories, and likewise to gain muscle you need to have a calorie surplus, because you are actually gaining weight
In general, volume training means 8-10 repetitions per set. I use about 4-8 sets per exercise, with 2 mins rest between them.
When I say 8 repetitions per set, it means the load must so heavy that you can only do a series of 8 repetitions, ie if you feel you can do a ninth repetition, youre not working out heavy enough.
My biceps' are different as well. Left one is actually bigger, but the right one is more defined. If you train them equally with dumbbell curls it should even out with time. Biceps curls with bar on the other hand can worsen the difference (if one arm is stronger than the other)
- the last paragraph explains best the answer i think i was looking for. so dumbbells are best..epill
- i think in all my exercises i have done curls with a bar free weighted and nautical...epill
- but one side always grew more rapidly than the other. ill start with dumbbells now and see.epill
- thanks for the rest of that. helps a lot to define a routine.epill
