Today's episode is the first in a five-part series all about program design. For this episode, we will focus on training volume. Listen in as Austin, Sue, and Alex define training volume and go into detail about how to determine training volume, adjustments, and mistakes they made when they began writing programs.
As always, it is our goal not only to supply you, the listener, with valuable insights on the topics or questions but also to plant some seeds for further research and thought. Without further ado, let’s get into today's episode.
