I typically will only do 1-3 sets of an exercise. The other day I decided to finish my workout with timed sets. It broke down to: 60sec of pullups 60sec of Standing Military Press 60sec of Close Grip Pushups This was after doing 3 rounds of Bench Press straight to Bodyweight Dips, no rest. The timed stuff really is tough, very good for building up intensity and really learning what you're made of. Keep at it! I agree Mat! I typically will only do 1-3 sets of an exercise.

Keep at it!

First set, no problem, but it does start to catch up to you. By fifth set, I wanted to cry. I kept looking at my watch on my knee hoping it would go by faster. Delts already sting, and it hasn't been a full day yet. Dude, tried this with military press x 5 sets, 60sec each. First set, no problem, but it does start to catch up to you.
