Following up from the paper I looked at last week examining the supposed dose response relationship between training volume and hypertrpohy I thought I'd look at the newest entry into the nonsense with the 52 sets/week study from the end of last year that all of the fitpros jumped on like their lives depended on it.

As usual, they created the edgy memes without really going into the details of what the study did and found. But that's where I come in because someone has to actually present the data accurately. And it sure as hell won't be them.

So here ya' go, a detailed look at the paper titled:
Enes A et al. Effects of Different Weekly Set Progressions on Muscular Adaptations in Trained Males: Is there a Dose-Response Effect? Med Sci Sports Exerc (2023) doi: 10.1249/MSS.0000000000003317. Online ahead of print.

I don't have access to a free full text this time around.
