Will my gains be affected much by this approach to training?

[PowerPuffGirls]

So I typically train 1-2 muscle groups per day and 15-20 sets. The issue is, I also work from home and lift from home (home gym). So I might be in the middle of a set, then get a work call that lasts an hour, then after that, I go back to lifting. Then a few sets later, I might remember that I need to send an important email. So I spend some time on that. My point is, I typically get my sets done over the course of an entire day. Instead of 1-2 hour block.

How much will this affect my gains? I always lift with intensity, doing reps until failure. It jus often takes me a while to get them all done

Kind regards,

That’s an interesting approach and if anyone has an answer to this question then they are full of sheeeit.
IMO getting it in is getting it in.

The only thing i would ask is if you are getting your carbs in to fuel the lifting throughout the day. Seeing as PreWO oral/ any of those caffeine powders are out of the question, Carbs and adequate hydration (and rest obviously) seem to be the only possibility of really upping the intensity of the lift.

overall this seems like an nice, work friendly way of getting your lift in, and it also does not allow for overcomplication, which I am all for. Maybe examine your carb sources and prioritize evenly spacing them out so you stay fueled throughout the day, other than that not much i can say except :

IMO getting it in is getting it in.

It's not like your going to turn into a blob or worse dr mike, but it's not ideal. You can't ignore work for an hour to train?

It probably wont matter much if you are training at the same quality, intensity, volume, intensity and effort.

I guess you can argue you would get less recruitment if you arent warmed up well and having to warm up and get into the groove again.

Also depends if you are training for strength or hypertrophy, i think that approach would work very well for strength, but not as well for hypertrophy.

if you want a simple answer: Probably doesnt matter much as long as you get the same quality work in across the week or whatever arbitrary time period you choose.
