About this episode
Brad, Eric, and Jeff discuss different strategies you can use to help you find the sweet spot between time efficiency and stimulus efficiency for your situation. How long should you rest between sets? Is resting longer between reps to extend the length of a set a good strategy? What are antagonist paired sets and why would someone use them? How to drop sets compare to myo-reps in regard to effectiveness? What evidence is there on double days? Why is it important to be able to differentiate which type of fatigue you are experiencing? Do drops in performance really matter for hypertrophy? The answers to these questions and many more are covered in this episode.
