    Time and time again the guys adding the most LBM/density are the ones focused on moving big loads (regardless of rep range)

    @fender75 If we assume a 2-hour workout, that's 12 minutes between sets. Even if each set is a minute long (which it wouldn't be if he's doing low rep sets) that's an absurd rest period. I find it hard to believe there are studies that would support that style of training.

    Genetics aren’t what you think they are

    @dawn16 Here's the deal with genetics... It's what separates the elite bodybuilders from the professional-but-not-amazing bodybuilders because all of those guys are busting their asses and have their shit dialed in.

    Genetics aren’t what you think they are

    @kevinfd1985 I don't even have a 6-pack (working on it. 31 years old, I'm going to get it back for the first time since I was 19... I was more worried about getting big and strong for way too long), and people tell me all the time, "I remember when I was young and had muscles like you!" I've...

    New "RIR 1-2 vs RIR 0" Study - Similar gains

    @minhphat I agree that people shouldn't be doing RIR early on. I think it takes a decent amount of experience to develop the knowledge of how much you truly do have in reserve, and the only way to know that is to train to failure anyway. So yeah, after years of lifting, you probably have a good...
