Zac Robinson, researcher and expert in muscle hypertrophy, discusses the influence of estimated proximity to failure on muscle growth. They explore the challenges of estimating Repetitions in Reserve (RIR) and the trade-off between volume and intensity in training. The podcast also covers the implications of training to failure on muscle gain, the debate between machine-based and free weight exercises, and recommendations for further reading.

Brad Schoenfeld is back on the show and as always it’s a deep dive into hypertrophy.In today's episode, we talk about some recent research out of Brad’s lab, dig into training at long muscle lengths, low-load training and the mechanisms of hypertrophy. As always with Brad a very wise, level-headed perspective and great practical take-homes.https://www.instagram.com/bradschoenfeldphd/https://www.lookgreatnaked.com/References:1.] https://sportsmedicine-open.springeropen.com/articles/10.1186/s40798-023-00578-42.] https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/30335577/3.] https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/37038845/Timestamps:00:00 Updates and new evidence in exercise science12:48 Research on deloads16:54 ROM and lengthened partials22:42 Excluding the short position from training?27:15 Do some muscles respond better to short ranges rather than long ranges?29:07 High loads vs low loads39:00 Are higher reps more fatiguing?43:54 Mechanical stress and its effect on hypertrophy50:52 What causes hypertrophy?56:20 Does the pump contribute to hypertrophy?Thanks, please comment, like and subscribe!COACHING: https://revivestronger.com/online-coaching/WEBSITE: https://www.revivestronger.com/MINI CUT MOVEMENT: https://revivestronger.com/mini-cut-movement/DISCORD SERVER: https://discord.gg/WtDsYWAAgTMEMBERSITE: https://revivestronger.com/team-revive-stronger/SHOP: https://www.revivestronger.com/shopFACEBOOK: http://www.facebook.com/revivestrongerINSTAGRAM: http://www.instagram.com/revivestrongerNEWSLETTER: https://bit.ly/2rRONG5__________________________________________________________________If you want to support us via a donation, that's highly appreciated!Patreon• https://www.patreon.com/revivestrongerDon't like Patreon, go to Paypal!• https://bit.ly/2XZloJ4__________________________________________________________________Our Ebooks!Ultimate Guide To Contest Prep Ebook:• https://revivestronger.com/product/the-ultimate-guide-to-contest-prep/Primer Phase Ebook:• https://revivestronger.com/product/the-primer-phase/__________________________________________________________________Stay up to date with the latest research and educate yourself!MASS (Research Review):• https://goo.gl/c7FSJDJPS Mentorship• https://jpseducation.mykajabi.com/a/13324/esJ8AZwy__________________________________________________________________Books we recommend!Muscle & Strength Pyramids• https://goo.gl/S8s6tGFor more• http://revivestronger.com/library/__________________________________________________________________Supplements:www.cnpprofessional.co.uk - STEVE15 for 15% off__________________________________________________________________When you're interested in online coaching, please go visit our website and follow the application form:https://www.revivestronger.com/online-coaching/ Learn more about your ad choices.
