Okay, welcome everyone to a new episode of the Jeff Nippard podcast. In this episode, I'm speaking with

IFPB Pro John Meadows, and we're going to be talking about how hard it is we should be training in the gym.

Now, this is going to be part two of a five-part podcast series that I'm doing on this exact question.

And I should say that when I set out to do this, I had originally just planned to get, you know, a three, maybe four or five

minute answer from each of the experts that I interviewed and kind of compile their answers for a

YouTube video. But after each of these calls had started, I just couldn't help but ask some

follow-up questions and realize that to really have each expert do this topic, any justice at all, I would have to ask some follow-up

questions and kind of dig into the details a little bit more. So what I decided I'd do is after I

released that YouTube video, which I'll link down below, I would just do a full-blown interview

with each of these guests and release them separately here on my podcast. So no doubt this will

probably seem like overkill to some of you guys,

and there's going to be three more podcasts like this on the way. But I think as you'll see, each guest has a

slightly different slant to this topic, and I picked these guests specifically because I knew that

they would disagree or at least offer different opinions on

some of the details. So I think that you guys will find it interesting. And I think as you'll

also see, we don't only stick to the topic of how hard you should train. We also kind of

touch on the peripheral issues as well, which I find equally interesting and informative.

So without further ado, I give you guys IFBB Pro John Meadows.

So John, how hard should we be training in the gym?

How hard should we be training in the gym?

I think everybody should do like 50 drop sets a week,

25 sets of ISO holds after the drop set, 32 cluster
