Episode notes
Leverage Maintenance Volume
- Maintain muscle with lower volume than needed for growth.
- Prioritize specific training goals by reducing volume in other areas.
How to Track Volume
- Track training volume as the amount of physical work done (weight, distance, reps).
- Focus on "hard sets" to better gauge fatigue and compare programs.
Warm-ups and Fatigue
- Warm-up sets may sometimes even reduce fatigue, rather than add to it.
- Don't overthink warm-ups by counting them towards total volume.
