Episode notes
Frequency Boosts Strength Most
- Training frequency, not just volume or intensity, strongly impacts strength gains. - Ultra-frequency training by spreading sets throughout the day boosts strength more than doing all sets in one session.
Split Strength and Endurance Training
- Separating strength and endurance training by weeks improves performance twice as much compared to mixing them in the same week. - Focused block training fosters better gains without losing adaptation in either attribute.
Hourly Pull-Ups Boost Strength
- Adam shared a personal story of doing one or two pull-ups every hour during long work shifts to improve strength. - This daily low-intensity practice led him to achieve his peak pull-up performance without typical workouts.
