#219: Are You Training Too Much?

3D Muscle Journey

Brian, Brad, and Alberto discuss how they have adjusted their volume throughout their lifting careers and the benefits of lower-volume programs.

About how many sets per muscle group did Alberto do this prep? What made Alberto realize his volume was too high? What is the cost and return of higher-volume programs? How have lower-volume programs made the coaches better lifters? How does Brad adjust his volume in the short-term based on the context of the day? What variables outside of the gym have the coaches been monitoring to help them with their training?

The answers to these questions, plus many more are covered in this episode.
