Our new study found training with a single set per exercise elicited appreciable gains in trained lifters, even when training was carried out several reps short of failure. Reinforces that time shouldn't be a barrier to consistent resistance training!💪pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40249908/

Be quiet, work hard, and stay healthy. It’s not ambition or skill that is going to set you apart but sanity. “Ambition means tying your well-being to what other people say or do,” Marcus Aurelius writes. “Self-indulgence means tying it to the things that happen to you.”

New study found intense stretching of the pecs (maximum tolerated stretch in a stretch machine) conducted 4x/wk for 15 mins per session produced similar pec hypertrophy to resistance training carried out 3x/wk. Several caveats but still interesting! link.springer.com/article/10.100…
