    p.s I find that training with super sets, tri sets, and drop sets always leave me with a far more effective pump than straight sets of a 8-12 rep range. My body seems to respond with more work and less rest. I'm also a big fan of GVT style training. Always get some serious DOMS from that style of training, but I dont do it often as it isnt recomended, and i like to change it up because I almost feel like my body gets bored lol!

    Sorry for my lack of knowledge in regard to all these training abreviations, but what is TUD? I am very familiar with progressive overload and volume training.
    What I am taking home from this is a combination of all these training styles (which all aim to build muscle mass) and a caloric surplus should get the job done.

    My bad lol its TUT not TUD..time under tension, I have info above in my initial post. ie increasing the time to complete your sets (something like 40 sec), working in 4 second negatives, using drop sets on ur last set etc.
