Part 2 of the set-progression roundtable with Dr. Eric Helms and Dr. Mike Israetel is back! We dig into the concept of progresisng sets week to week even more, whether fatigue really escalates over a mesocycle, and why or why not it might be viable to start each week at lower volumes than what is "optimal" on average.

Time-Stamps:

0:00 - Why doesn't Eric progress sets week to week?

5:00 - How Mike would set up a mesocycle with 15 sets on average

9:50 - If 15 sets are optimal, should we start each week at 15 sets? (Eric)

16:11 - Why Mike prefers to start lower

19:05 - How could we "prove" who is right?

24:16 - Does fatigue "accumulate" over the weeks?

31:40 - Mike's rebuttal

43:10 - Does set-progression week to week produce quicker fatigue accumulation?

52:00 - Where can we find you?
