Abel’s Aesthetic Training Tip:

“Anyone who follows me on social knows I’m a big advocate of drop sets. On the last set of a lot of my exercises, I’ll do a drop set. Sometimes I’ll do a double, triple, or even quadruple drop set, reducing the weight each time. It totally exhausts the muscle, which ultimately leads to growth.”
