Last week's episode on the minimum effective dose approach got some great feedback as well as some follow-up questions that will make or break whether this approach actually works for you. So today, we're answering them!

By the end of today's episode, you'll have a better understanding of the following concepts, how to apply them, & why they matter:

  • Reps in reserve
  • Stimulating reps
  • Fatigue management
  • Isolation vs. compound movements

This episode can definitely be listened to as a standalone but is best absorbed in conjunction with Part 1!
