 Muscle Tone VS Muscle Mass Workout Routines

How Many Sets for Muscle Tone?

The goal for muscle tone is to avoid damaging the muscles. One of the ways to insure that damage doesn't occur is to keep the volume low. I would recommend 2 exercises per body part and 3-4 sets for each exercise.

How Many Reps in Each Set?

Very few people understand how effective low reps are for muscle tone. Low reps create harder contractions and over time, your muscle will display better tone. Feel casey eye institute to include medium to high reps, but make sure you don't neglect heavier low rep training as well. Gaining strength at a low body fat level is a great way to look ripped!

Why Work The Muscles Frequently When Going For Tone?

Muscle tone is basically the partial contraction of a muscle in a relaxed state, so your muscles are contacting a bit on their own even when you are completely relaxed. The way to increase this is to contract you muscles hard (workout) on a frequent basis. The problem with damaging a muscle is that you will be unable to work that muscle again until it is repaired. If you work a damaged muscle too soon, it eye muscle result in over-training. Another problem with working a damaged muscle is that it won't be able to contract hard during your workout, so that workout won't be very productive when it comes to increasing muscle tone.

Avoid Going to Failure or Using Forced Reps When Toning Your Muscles

Going to the point of failure will increase the likelihood that muscle damage will occur. The bad thing about going to failure is that it teaches your eye sty to fail! Your body will react by not contracting that muscle quite as hard for the next set, it will also result in less muscle tone outside of the gym. Going to failure and forcing reps is great for muscle mass, but terrible for muscle tone!

Here is a Typical Mass Building Split Routine

A popular mass building routine is the "3 day split". A 3 day split simply means that all the muscles in your body are worked in 3 different workouts. So what a lot of people do is work chest, shoulders, and triceps on one day...back and biceps on another day...and legs and abs on the third day. The benefit here is that since the muscles red eyes getting damaged, they need more recovery time. Also since you are only focused on a couple of body parts, you could really do a high volume of intense lifts for each body part.

Muscle Tone Works Better With a "2 Day Split"

Since you want to work each muscle group more often when going for tone, you should try to split you workout over two days instead of three. The great thing here is that you don't need much recovery time when you don't damage the muscles.
