The Scientific Way to Gain Strength and Size
How many sets should you be doing each week for maximum muscle growth? More isn’t always better! In this episode, we break down the latest research on resistance training dose-response, including a meta-regression of 67 studies and a new study testing up to 52 sets per week.
Here’s what we cover:
✅ How training volume impacts hypertrophy and strength
✅ Where the law of diminishing returns kicks in
✅ Why proximity to failure is more important than total sets
✅ The Effective Reps Model—why only the last few reps really matter
✅ The truth about training frequency—should you train a muscle once, twice, or three times a week?
