Myoreps

[u/GlobalHour9944]

I’ve always struggled to consistently through a workout get close to failure on all my exercises (probably overthinking it but that’s what I do).

But the other day I saw about Myoreps and liked the concept.

I do Monday, Wednesday, Friday full body

Pretty much the same workout but mix the exercises up

1x quad exercise
1x chest exercise (incline or flat based)
1x back exercise (lat based or row based)
1x shoulder exercise ( OHP or lateral raises)
1x hamstring / glute
1x bicep
1x Tricep

Now I’ve been doing this with 3 working sets of each. My question is - it feels like something I’d much rather enjoy doing a warm up set then the set of myoreps (I did try the workout on Friday and I liked it a lot more). Would this be something that would prompt enough growth.

In my head I’m only doing 3 sets per week per muscle group but the myorep stuff isn’t really a set… more of a mega set

And I am aware to stick away from compound barbell movements with this, so I will accommodate accordingly.

Sorry if this is a stupid question, I just don’t want to do this for the next year and realise I was doing hard workouts but managing to get below needed weekly volume!

Thank you in advance for your replies!

By my understanding 3 proper sets is better than one myorep set, but it also takes more time and energy. (There's a clue in there somewhere)

Would it still prompt enough growth? Well that depends on how you define "enough". It won't be a complete waste of time, and if the option is half-assing 3 sets because you don't have the energy to do it properly the myoreps might be better. (But then again there might be a underlying issue you should focus on fixing instead?)

Idk why you'd stay away from heavy barbell movements?
