This may be one of my favorite podcasts I've recorded about programming. In this episode, we discuss individual differences, how accurately lifters can gauge RPE, and the role of proximity to failure in strength and hypertrophy outcomes.Follow Josh and DDS:Josh Pelland, MS, CSCS (@josh.datadrivenstrength) • Instagram photos and videosTeam Data Driven Strength (@datadrivenstrength) • Instagram photos and videosJoshua Pelland (researchgate.net)Subscribe to my Patreon to support the show!!!Philosophical Weightlifting | Creating Weightlifting podcasts and sharing knowledge.Follow me and get coaching!https://www.instagram.com/josh_philwl/Weightlifting House:https://www.weightliftinghouse.com/ code PHILWL for 10% offOnyx:https://www.onyxstraps.com/ with code PHILWL for 10% offhttps://www.instagram.com/onyx_straps/Earth Fed Muscle:https://www.earthfedmuscle.com/ with code PHILWL for 10% offCheck out the AI:https://weightlifting.ai/
