He first appeared on SHR in 2007 when he wrote a paper on the most effective rep schemes for producing the most gains in hypertrophy. We discussed science that shows the best way to build strength and muscle size in the same workout. Is it really necessary to go to failure? Does muscle fascia play a role in how big your muscles can get? How much volume to grow and how much volume is too much? Plus much more. ::
