play

06/14/21 • 44 min

Join the TNT crew as we discuss 10 Things we know about strength training, a.k.a. what we've learned after years and years of experience.

When science looks at various strength training techniques, muscle protein synthesis, frequency of training, and the like, these are the conclusions, and they form our base of knowledge as it relates to resistance training.

Many of these recommendations may seem at odds with common training methods (the kind that you hear from a trainer or gym bro). Listen closely, and more importantly, apply what you've learned. You're likely to be pleasantly surprised.
