Quantifying Strength Training
- Quantify strength training in terms of volume, as it dictates workout length.
- Focus on sets per workout and week to manage time efficiently.
Minimum Effective Dose for Strength
- One to three sets per exercise per week, at 70-85% of one-rep max, can yield strength gains.
- This applies to individuals with at least one year of resistance training, primarily men, excluding deadlifts.
Powerlifting Study Results
- In a study, powerlifters doing two weekly single-rep sets near max saw minimal gains.
- Adding two back-off sets of three reps at 80% significantly improved their strength gains.
