#304: How to Build a Training Day

19 mars 2026 · 1 h 17 min

Notes de l’épisode

Jeff, Brian, and Brad go through how to build a training session (exercise selection, exercise order, number of sets, rep ranges, tempo, etc.) and clarify how much flexibility there is when it comes to how you structure your sessions. In what situations can it be beneficial to do isolation exercises before compound exercises? What are the coaches’ thoughts on active recovery days? What are Jeff’s thoughts on the strategy of having newer lifters do extra volume to make up for a lack of skill? How can you manage your total volume if you like doing a lot of different exercises? What have the coaches observed is the sweet spot when it comes to number of sets per exercise? If the coaches were to build a *perfect* training day for a robot, what would it look like? The answers to these questions and many more are covered in this episode.
