Large gains in minimal time: the minimal effective dose for hypertrophy│Dr. Brad Schoenfeld

His book "Development of Muscle Hypertrophy" is an excellent source on muscle hypertrophy.

He hasn't used his own advice apparently.

I start a lot of my clients on 2- 30
Minute sessions a week for the minimal effective dose- love to hear the science on this

what happens if u take like, ur normal full set, close to failure area, then u do lighter, then lighter, like, almost no breaks or no breaks, and then, u take a longer break? Then u do the same for next and next muscle group, is that stupid or?

Fantastic info and I love having this resource to share to my clients and prove to them that YES, 30 minutes of intentional lifting 2 x per week CAN make a difference. Often people won't do anything at all if they think they have to do so much to make change. As a coach, training them to think differently is the first obstacle. Thank you for this awesome short clip that's jammed with so much goodness. It helps!

Good points, thanks for the info!

I love all your videos but his work is false. Watch his videos in which he trains to failure and its laughable. I don't think he knows what training to failure even means. I've been training clients for 31 years. I know he believes in volume training but he still advocates to reach failure but he always ends his sets never reaching it but claims failure during the demonstration.

Just look at this vampires skin and hair etc. Yes...AVOID HYPERTROPHY AT ALL COSTS.....YOU WANT LONGEVITY NOT HYPERTROPHY

If I rest more than 30-45 sec between sets, I get distracted. Plus, it challenges me to take short breaks.

Listened to the whole podcast. Fantastic info.

Thank you Dr. Rhonda for these clips.

Thanks for your time editing these into "Bite Sized Chunks" Doc, much appreciated 🥰

Thanks!

What about if your sets form part of a circuit of exercises five times, for example, on pull days: first circuit is 1) bicep curls,2) Deadlift, 3) seated rows, 4) Overhead press, and 5) pullups repeated five times, does that work for hypertrophy?

So to be efficient have 2 days a week and do heavy sets of 8-12 with 2 sets per muscle preferably using compound exercises and doing supersets at least on the isolation exercises.

I love these short, informative excerpts on topics. I don't have a lot of time usually to sit for the entire interviews but when you post these specifically interesting topics that I've always wondered the answers to it is greatly beneficial. As always, thank you for your time and care that you put into it!

Here, Let me do the Heavy Lifting for you.
