Basic compound movements, heavy weights, low to moderate reps and high intensity. But what is the best approach to take if you’re in a cutting phase and want to structure a proper muscle definition workout to really bring out the cuts, lines and separation in your physique? When it comes to this aspect of their program, most trainees get it completely wrong. They lighten up the weights, perform higher reps and include more isolation lifts in their plan thinking that “heavy weights and low reps builds muscle” while “light weights and high reps burns fat”. In reality, this type of cutting phase workout is completely misguided and counterproductive. There’s only two things you can do with your muscles: you can make them bigger and you can make them smaller. But changing up your rep schemes and exercise selection in order to structure a “muscle definition routine” really makes no sense at all. Achieving a high degree of “muscle tone” is simply a matter of having good muscular development along with low body fat levels. So, your muscle definition workout really should be structured in the exact same way as your “bulking” workout. Your goal should be to provide the most powerful stimulus to your muscles that you can so that you can maintain as much lean muscle during your cutting phase as possible. From there, let your diet and cardio strip off the fat. If you go the “light weight high reps” route, all you really do is end up providing a weaker stimulus to your muscles and increase the chances of LBM loss during your cutting program.
