How to workout without getting bulky

It seems most workout programs these days are designed with the purpose of getting the lifter as huge as possible. But not everyone wants to look like a big bulky body builder.

How to create the lean, toned look...
If you want to be lean with toned muscles then you need to keep volume low and avoid fatiguing muscles. In plain English that means:

  • Keep sets and reps low (both under 5)
  • Keep rest periods between sets high (3-5 minutes)
  • Avoid lactic acid burn from higher reps (keep reps 5 or under)
If you can follow these 3 tips then you will be able to work on getting stronger without getting bulky. This will create the lean, toned muscles which look much more aesthetically pleasing than huge body builder muscles.

If you want a full system which is already set up for these exact goals then I recommend Visual Impact. This is designed to build a lean, toned, Hollywood actor style body and teaches you all the details as well as giving you workouts to follow. It really takes the thinking out of trying to design your own program.
