You Do Not Need High Rep, Low Weight 60 Minute Workouts

high rep, low weightThere is an old myth that in order to lose fat you have to do long sets of high rep, low weight workouts (this is doing 15-20 reps per exercise). There are several reasons this is not true which we will discuss here but the biggest problem I see is the amount of extra time required when doing this type of workout. A high rep, low weight workout will easily consume 60-90 minutes of your day. This to me is one of the biggest reasons people do not stick to a workout routine, after  few weeks they think “I Just don’t have the time”. Is it an excuse? Sure it is, I’d even say a cop out. At the same time, people are busier than ever these days. not just with work and family obligations but there is no denying, just about everyone loves to surf the internet and spend time on their smartphone. If you are looking to bulk up, using this routine will never get you the muscle you desire. I will be writing a Grow Muscles Advance Routine article to follow up with this but for now, lets bust the high rep, low weight workout myth.
