In this episode of the Revive Stronger podcast, Dr. Eduardo De Souza joins us to dissect the latest research on training volume and muscle hypertrophy.

We explore how recent meta-analyses have shaped the 'more is better' narrative, these studies' critical limitations and caveats, and the distinction between statistical significance and real-world application.

Dr. De Souza also shares practical advice on individualising volume based on training goals, experience, and recovery capacity, while avoiding diminishing returns.

Whether you’re a lifter looking to optimise your training or a coach striving to stay evidence-based, this episode is packed with insights to help you cut through the noise and make smarter decisions in your programming.
