Training volume is a never-ending topic of debate. How many reps should you do when you want to become bigger and stronger? How many working sets?

We focused on reps in episode 5, so today it's time to focus on our favorite way to measure training volume: the number of working sets you train at or close to failure for any given lift or muscle group.

We kick things off with a new study from Brazil on football players with plenty of gym experience, that measured the effects of different weekly set volumes.

Then we broaden our discussion, by answering a handful of questions on this topic from our listeners.
