How much should you do when you strength train?

Should you do the general three sets of 10 reps that is often promoted, or is there a more nuanced way to get an answer for your individual body?

This is a question that a lot of people struggle to answer with their workouts, leaving them feeling sore and injured or feeling like they are unable to consistently make progress.

However, there are some fundamental concepts that, once you understand them, will help you easily determine this for yourself every time you lift weights.

On this week’s episode of the Exercise Is Health® podcast, we are laying out what these concepts are and how to implement them in your workouts.

If you have ever wondered how much you should be doing when you strength train, listen up!

What we discuss in this conversation will help you answer that question once and for all.

Check out all the details in this week’s episode!
