This week I have Max Coleman on the podcast to discuss his recently published paper on deloading. Max is a student at Brad Schoenfeld’s lab and looked into the impact of a week of the gym and the impact it had on performance and muscle growth. Did it help boost results or was it not needed at all? Find out today.
