Topics include maximizing muscle growth, how to track volume, what you can do if you're afraid of gaining body fat after your competitive season, and a lot more.Is there a way to tell if you're maximizing the rate you can build muscle or if you're putting on muscle slower than you could? How should you count volume from compound exercises? How should you count volume from myo-rep sets? Does one set of myo-reps equal one traditional set? Why might your weekly volume (in terms of sets per week) actually go *down* over your lifting career? How can you balance lifting with other forms of physical activity like running, cycling, basketball, and tennis?The answers to these questions and many more are covered in this episode.Timestamps0:00- Introduction2:24- How to grow maximally versus slowly and how to tell the difference13:07- How to balance lifting with other forms of physical activity like running, cycling, basketball, etc.21:48- If you aren't working with a coach, how can you know if you're lean enough to stop dieting and ready to step onstage35:35- How should you count volume from compound exercises?
