Volume & Frequency

0 Upvotes

Hi! I’m curious your…

  1. ⁠Age
  2. ⁠Sex
  3. number of days lifting a week
  4. number if days doing cardio a week
  5. number of sets per body part a week
  6. ⁠How you’re recovery/progress is

There’s interesting data and anecdotes as to what is recoverable volume and frequency to make gains? When entering a hypetroohy phase as a powerlifter, I find the volume to be hard to manage - sleepless nights and soreness almost always occur.

When powerlifting - doing 6 days a week is easy. When doing hypetroohy blocks 4 days seems the limit.

I’d like to know anecdotes of others.
