“How many sets per body part do I train? Now, since day one, since I started training at the age of 18, I started with 20 sets a body part. I only might do three or four movements minus my feel sets or my warm-up sets.”
Cutler regularly executes three to four sets using five different exercises. He tries to stay ‘more or less around 20 sets a body part.’
“What I try to do is a lot of variations, a lot of angles, and what I’ll do is at least three or four sets and focus on maybe five different movements.
Like I said, four sets each, three sets each. Sometimes working in more or less but around 20 sets a body part. No matter what the body part is, whether it’s biceps, legs, back, chest, shoulders, arms, it’s all the same,” shares Jay Cutler.
