Training Myth 1: High Reps Are Better For “Toning”, Low Reps Are Better For Bulking
Both of these ideas aren’t really true. What people mean by “toning” is basically losing fat so the underlying muscle can show through better. According to the best research we have, losing fat is just a matter of putting yourself in a caloric deficit and eating enough protein. There are at least 3 studies showing that bodyfat spot reduction isn’t possible and a typical weight lifting session only burns about 75-300 calories anyway. Still, I think there is a practical hypertrophy zone somewhere around 6-15 reps.
Training Myth 2: You should only train one bodypart per workout (Bodypart split)
Research shows that a full week between workouts is way more time than you need and there might be a “limit” to how much you can benefit from killing one muscle in one workout.The “best” training split is the one that allows you to get an in adequate amount of volume per WEEK, while distributing your working sets throughout the week in a way that maximizes performance and recovery.
Training Myth 3: Need To Get Sore For The Workout To “Count”
Soreness is a result of a novel stimulus, not necessarily an effective stimulus. Soreness CAN be a decent indicator that you actually hit the muscle you were trying to hit. Did you lift more weight this workout than the last workout? Did you do more reps than the previous workout? Did you improve your form in some small way? These metrics are far more valuable than how much your muscles hurt the next day.
Training Myth 4: Muscle Confusion Is Important: Always Switch Things Up
For beginners, I recommend the exact opposite approach: you want to keep the core of your training routine exactly the same week to week. You can have some exercises that you’re more flexible with and you can swap those in and out, but aim to at least have 1 or two “main movements” per day that you stick to, get better at, and get stronger with.
Training Myth 5: No Pain No Gain! Take Every Set To Failure!
Since taking sets to failure, especially on heavy compound exercises can cause more fatigue, increase injury risk through form breakdown and reduce the volume later in the workout, I generally recommend reserving sets taken to failure for the last set of an isolation exercise, while leaving 1 to 3 reps in the tank for everything else.
