Episode 3292: Dr. Neal Malik answers a listener’s question about rest intervals during workouts, explaining how adjusting rest periods can impact strength gains, workout intensity, and recovery. Drawing from both science and personal insight, he emphasizes the balance between stress and rest as the key to progress, injury prevention, and long-term growth. Quotes to ponder: "Stress plus rest equals growth." "By limiting your rest time, you're gonna keep your heart rate up so your resistance training actually becomes kind of a cardio workout too." "Maintaining proper form is so important for injury prevention."
