    Video

    Description

    In the second episode of the Volume Month, Dr. Mike Israetel is sharing his views on optimizing training volume.
    He is a proponent of progressing from the least volume you can progress on to the most, and repeating this process. I will try to challenge him on this to the best of my abilities, let’s see if I succeed!

    1:35 – How important is volume compared to progressive overload, intensity, failure proximity, etc?
    7:25 – Martin Berkhan, Jeff Alberts, and people who grow so well on low training volumes
    14:00 – Going from low to high volumes (why is it beneficial if its beneficial)
    14:50 – Why add weight but not add sets?
    24:30 – I’m trying to challenge Mike on the volume landmarks
    28:26 – I’m trying to challenge him a bit more here
    35:40 – Can you add sets if you’re recovery is not 100% on point?
    41:08 – How much more gains will you make if you do the most volume possible vs the minimum effective dose?
    50:20 – Schoenfeld’s 45 sets a week study
    59:05 – Mike’s new volume landmarks?!
    59:45 – How much volume does Mike do?
    1:06:45 – Where can we find out more about you?
