To overcome this situation, Arnie introduced a training approach called exercise every minute on the minute (EMOM) training. “This workout maximizes every minute and has you done in less than 15 minutes,” says the seven-time Mr. Olympia. He further elucidated that in this method, one must start a 60-second timer, complete 10 reps of the first exercise, and rest only for the time left until the timer goes off. For the next five exercises, repeat the same process.
