In this invigorating episode of the Helix Gym Podcast, Tim Frey dives deep into the no-nonsense science of muscle gain. Ever thought stretching could replace strength training? Think again! We debunk a recent headline suggesting static stretching could induce muscle growth equal to strength training. Discover the insights from the study and why context matters.
Shift gears with us as we then plunge into the heart of muscle hypertrophy – understanding the nuances of training volume, reps, sets, and intensity. How many sets do you truly need? Are higher reps the secret to time efficiency? And what’s the magic behind hitting loads above 70-75% of your 1RM?
Plus, get inspired by Andrew Savage's transformative fitness journey, dropping an astounding 31 kg in a year, and stay tuned as Tim addresses a common fitness concern: shin splints. Whether you're just starting out or you're a seasoned gym-goer, this episode promises a goldmine of actionable advice to supercharge your fitness journey.
