I recently read an article that mentioned recent studies showing you can get a decent workout by doing one set (10-12 reps to exhaustion). What time I have to exercise, I'd rather be in the water, but I can easily spare 5 minutes on my way out the door to hit some of the muscle groups in the weight room. Any one have suggestions for super fast workouts? Thanks.
I think it's possible to achieve results with a one set workout but I believe you really have to push the intensity level to make it work. I'd also say adequate warm-up would be a definite necessity.
And have a really good spotter! If you go to absolute failure your spotter is going to have to do some work and also give you lots of encouragement.
