How Many Sets Are Needed to Maximize Muscle Growth- (Ft. Brad Schoenfeld)
How Many Sets Are Needed to Maximize Muscle Growth- (Ft. Brad Schoenfeld)
When it comes to developing the optimal training program, there’s several variables that need to be considered. One of the most important variables is “how much volume per week” should you do, or “how many sets per muscle group” should you do for hypertrophy. Despite its importance, there actually isn’t much applicable research out there on this topic. Luckily, Dr. Brad Schoenfeld has recently published a meta-analysis on this exact topic and discusses his results with me in this video. We’ll go through how many sets per muscle group per week is best for hypertrophy, and how this differs between various muscle groups and your training experience. By the end of it, you should have a much clearer idea as to how many sets you should do or how much volume you should be performing in your workouts.
