Watts Doc #9: Strength, Endurance, and The Size Principle

6/27/2019

The podcast's first deep dive into muscle physiology, we look at a study on weight lifting while endurance training vs just endurance training, with a surprising result. From here we talk about the size principle, which you're using a lot more often than you think.
