Ep. 146: The Influence of Repetition Number on Training Adaptations | Dr. Pak (part 2)

Feb 10, 2022

How much does a particular rep range influence an adaptation? Is it true that muscular endurance, hypertrophy, and strength can only be influenced in a narrow window of reps?

In this episode of the podcast, Dr. Pak and I dig into some of the literature surrounding the strength-endurance continuum. This includes available evidence discussing the influence of repetition range on specific adaptations, how Pak uses this evidence to inform practice, and more!

Enjoy!
