What I think is great about research…

.

Is that in the context of exercise science/bodybuilding is that it has validated much of what ‘old school’ bodybuilders did within their training.

.

Training to failure

Partial ranges of motion

The importance of variables related to nutrition

The list goes on.

.

On the flip side of the coin, it also dismisses the most absurd approaches from muppets who think you won’t get results if you’re not following ‘insert dogmatic training approach’ or see ‘x diet’.

.

On the latest episode of anabolic radio I had the pleasure of speaking to @zacrobinson who lead the latest paper on training to failure for strength/hypertrophy. He talks us through the design, we go into practical application of the findings, and how some people can put themselves in a box with RPE/RIR based training.
