The Importance of Training Volume and Challenges in Conducting Weight Training Studies

In this episode James Krieger, MSc discusses with Jeff:

-how many sets are best for maximizing hypertrophy?

-is there a point at which adding more training volume is detrimental for gains?

-how important is training to failure?

-is it better to space volume out across the week with higher frequency training or have more per-session volume?

-the value of relative vs absolute volume for hypertrophy

-why James' 2010 meta-analysis on volume survives criticism 

-hints about some unpublished research from James and Brad Schoenfeld on training volume and hypertrophy 

...and much more!
