Summary

In this episode, we host the most comprehensive discussion of training volume available anywhere with Mike Israetel, Eric Helms, Layne Norton and Greg Nuckols.

We answer the question of whether we should train with the maximum volume that we can recover from (maximum recoverable volume) or with the minimum volume needed to make progress (minimum effective dose). We also touch on many other topics including:

- guidelines for how much volume to do per week

- the difference between max recoverable and max adaptive volume

- the importance of rest periods in determining per-session volume

- the relationship of max recoverable volume to injury

- differences in volume prescriptions for strength vs hypertrophy

- how to track training volume

- why not all volumes are created equal

And a LOT MORE!!

0:00.0	Alright guys, so before I present to you the Volume Roundtable, I just have two very quick clarifying items that I wanted to get out of the way.
0:07.7	The first is that there will be some language in this episode.
0:11.5	So if you happen to be listening to this around children or what have you, just be advised that we do drop the F-bomb a couple of times.
0:20.2	And secondly, video will be probably
0:23.5	required for certain parts of the discussion. So when you get to the part where Greg
0:29.4	Knuckles starts talking about and referring to a graph, it might be useful to just note that
0:34.6	time. It's about an hour in and just make sure that you watch the
0:38.3	video component of his speaking part just because I think that without that visual aid,
0:45.3	you might not really be able to appreciate the point that he's trying to make quite the same.
0:51.3	So for our listeners on iTunes, I will make sure that I put the link to the YouTube
0:56.0	video of the discussion in the show notes. And then also for our YouTube listeners, I will
1:03.0	have timestamps for all of the discussion topics. So if you want to jump around or if there's
1:09.0	something that you are looking forward to hearing more than the other stuff, then you can just jump right to that and that will all be in the description box below.
1:17.3	So without further ado, I give you guys the volume roundtable.
1:20.8	Okay, well, hello everyone and welcome to the Ice Cream for PR's podcast.
1:24.7	My name is Jeff Nippard and I am your host.
1:30.0	And with me, I've got Dr. Mike Isratel, Dr. Lane Norton, Eric Helms, and Greg Knuckles joining me for a conversation about
1:36.8	training volume. So for any of you guys who might be new to the podcast, I'd just like to
1:41.9	quickly point you guys towards two other episodes that I think
1:45.0	you would really enjoy. The first one is episode number 28 with Meno Henselmans, where we really
1:51.5	dissect all of the research to do with training frequency. So while this episode will be
1:56.5	focused more so towards how much work you should be doing in that episode we focused on how frequently you should be doing that work within the training week.
