If you’ve ever wondered:


How many reps is it best to do for hypertrophy?
Is it better to progress by adding reps or adding load?
Can I use different rep ranges to target different muscle fibres?


Then this is the episode for you, as I interview Daniel Plotkin on these very topics and more.

Daniel is a coach and PhD student in Applied and Molecular Muscle Physiology at Auburn University.
