workout duration

[Scott Stevenson]

hello everyone just new to this fortitude training I've been training a few years mainly high intensity low volume but decided to give the higher frequency a go. I've done 1 week of tier family plan 3 times a week focusing on upper body so muscle rounds on Friday are all upper body. my main question is each workout is only taking around 25 minutes to complete. I'm going full out on sets but am I missing something?! Maybe I'm not doing enough warm up sets any advice would be appreciated cheers. tier 1 advises 1 set to failure should I be doing 2/3 warm up sets before each set of exercise. the same applies to pump sets i just go straight into the pump set without warm ups

I guess the main thing you might be missing are the lower body muscle rounds on Friday with the Family Man plan.

Warm-up sets are whatever you need to get warmed up. There's not right or wrong IMO, except at the extremes (none or a dozen sets, for example.)

I'd at least feel out the weight with the pump sets. This is simply for safety to some degree, to make sure the machine is working, etc.

Also, PUMP set exercise selection is auto-regulated, so you want to pick the exercise that feels / works for you on that day. You might think a given exercise is a good one and then when you start it, find it just doesn't set well with you. (I'm never really for just jumping on a machine / exercise without a few feeler reps. )
