• Instead of sticking to the same weight and doing biceps curls for 3 sets of 8, for example, implement a heavy weight for your first few sets and, when you hit failure on the final set, drop the weight by 20 percent and keep repping until failure.

• If you feel really ambitious, you can drop the weigh again and keep repping. Dropsets burn more calories than traditional sets and can help you build muscle.
