Drop Sets | What Are They and How Do They Contribute to Muscle Growth?

Are you struggling to put on the size and muscle you want? Well, maybe it’s time to give drop sets a try.

What are Drop sets?

A drop set is a training technique where you perform a normal set, but rather than heading straight into your rest, you drop the weight and perform another set until failure.

It’s important to keep your rest as short as possible between sets — with only enough time to reduce the weight. That’s why cable machines and dumbbells are perfect, as you won’t waste time taking weights off a barbell.
