It's not the same, by a long shot
Intensity of work differs greatly
and please explain how you do more sets but spend less time doing it

At a guess i would say decrease the rest between sets and exercises or even superset which i find greatly reducess the workout time and generally kncreases intensity

I'm pretty sure that's not what high horse had in mind
Intensity = HP, or doing more work in less time
Volume = weight x reps x sets
Just so we are all clear and don't keep confusing the two
Crossfit, Powerlifting, or whatever, it doesn't change the definition
How do you do more sets in less time? Have you even been reading this thread? Or just thought you'd lob in and act like a cock just now?

As a beginner, it's best to just keep adding weight to the bar, and if you feel a burning desire to add volume, do it after your heavy sets for the day. IMO it's something you'd do for hypertrophy, but as stated previously, it's one of those controversial things.
That said, I see a LOT of people doing high volume who shouldn't be - the guys who I used to train with went on to do 10x10 for some reason and naturally went backwards in terms of weight on the bar. Who trains to get weaker?!
For me, upping the intensity can be doing more reps in a set (for assistance as it's a variable), or just taking less rest time between sets. I also agree that the single most important part of any program, no matter what it is, is effort. Again, I see a positive correlation between the amount of visible effort someone puts in to results gained.

Its the internet, this is serious business, and you should give trak suit pants a shot, you might like them.

I do like them. Just not to train in
I mean, to train in, you might like that, that hot clammy restrictive feeling.
making fello gym bros fantasize what's under there.

Thanks for the theory lesson High Road
See my avi pic? That's me at age 51 and I've seen you in your vids
theory is one thing but the proof is always in the pudding mate.

Yes, I train mostly with moderate weights and short rests, but if my heavy days are not successful, lifting heavier weights I aimed for, then my training is not working.
My heavy days are indeed the key days; I just have to back off mostly around 10-14 days between.
A win is a win even if you are retarded. Lol.
