Carry the Burn

Carry the Burn is a new exercise technique that I've been working on. The idea behind Carry the Burn is to get your muscles to work past exhaustion (and give you a really great pumped up look). Here is how it works.

  • Select the muscle groups that you want to work on. Now focus on one group.
  • Ok, now select an exercise. You want to set the weight to be fairly strenuous.
  • Do 8 - 15 reps.
  • Rest for 15 seconds.
  • Set the weight to the next lowest setting and repeat.
  • Do this process for 5 sets.
  • Move on to the next muscle group.

The idea is to create a burn that is carried to the next set. Once you get adjusted to this workout, repeat the process on the same muscle groups, but with different exercises.

Enjoy!
