High volume starts with equal work to equal rest....<br /><br />I routinely do equal work/rest workouts that kick my ass, big time. One does not have to do double, triple, quadruple amount of work to rest. Knowing how to change the intensity, without increasing rep count is a skill on it's own.<br /><br />Weight and pace, in additon to progressions have everything to do with everything.<br /><br />Individualizing one's level of conditioning for "high volume", is exzactly that....individualizing.<br /><br />I, myself, can get caught up in rep count....but knowing how to, progressively, make it "harder".<br /><br />You and I are the same...."Bring it on!"Tracy Reifkindhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07868257020358013257noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6960097.post-15935944448799832782010-11-10T16:48:04.300-08:002010-11-10T16:48:04.300-08:00diana
