German Volume training uses 10x10 sets and repetitions to make you grow. You can train your legs and abs with free weights or machines. Free weights will make you stronger but take longer to show results in muscle growth. Machines will isolate muscles and make them grow quicker at the expense of body function for strength. The main driver for bodily growth is food. Invest your research and effort accordingly.

When you focus on fitness, one of the most important aspects to consider is your current diet. This is because your physical and mental health is deeply intertwined with what, and how, you eat. Healthy foods, like whole grains, fruits and vegetables, energize your body and invigorate your mind. Highly processed meals, sugary drinks and fast food can drain your mental and physical energy, slow you down and negatively affect your moods.
