S6Ep11 - The Beginning of MED Series: MED Toolbox 1 How to Add Stress


Listen Later

We add stress during LP by adding intensity to a set volume.  Exercise selection, for the most part, stays the same.  After LP, however, how do we add stress?  We have volume, intensity, and exercise selection to play with.

We essentially divide the volume and intensity stressors.  One session emphasizes volume, often 4x5 or 5x5.  The other emphasizes intensity, a top set of 5 or 2x3 or 3x2 or 5x1 or a top triple, double, or single with back off sets.  

We hold off on changing exercise selection until later, although supplemental lifts can be thought of as modifying the main life toward more volume or intensity by either increase range of motion or time under tension or decrease these.
