8. One set, to failure
A common routine of working out is to do 2-3 sets of a constant number of repetitions. This is followed by a majority of the people. But if you are looking to maximize that output, try doing one set only but at infinite repetitions. That is to say, keep on doing until you can do no more. This will see your body push to the limit. Lifting to failure, however, does not mean you will do the last few reps in bad form or inefficient form.
