![]() This is only my personal "anec-data" as Huberman would say.Īlso what I wanted to say originally is that if you are a long limbed lifter for example you wont recover as easily from something like a bench press, but more easily from something like a deadlift, people with long femurs need less squat volume etc. What I would do if I where you: You said you moved away from Barbell to Dumbell to "optimize Hypertrophy", which seems to be logical at first sight, since you get a larger ROM therefore more stimulus therefore more muscle growth, however personally I am of the strong belief, that as a natural, your best bet on gaining a lot of muscle is to facilitate and ensure progressive overload, which makes Barbell excercises more lucrative than dumbell or machine excercises, since they are easier to overload. are optimized, MEV is what is the least amount of sets per week you can do and still grow from it (in contrast to below MEV, where the stimulus would be to little to drive adaptation.) To clarify MRV and MEV: MRV refers to the amount of sets you do per week that you are maximally able to recover from if nutrition, sleep, stress etc. Essentially, MRV means going for the highest total volume (in this case, of repetitions) by resting longer, and MEV means sacrificing repetition volume and rest time, in this case in order to increase the amount of total work sets?ĭo you dumbell Press 100lbs Dumbells or 2 50s? My numbers for that are:Ĭould you clarify a little bit more on MRV and MEV? I think I was intuiting the same problem in my aiming for the former over the latter, but to make sure I'm getting it right. I'm moving away from barbell workouts to dumbbell right now to optimize for hypertrophy. ![]() I'm 26 male, have been lifting on and off for a few years. I'm intermediate at lifting, and thought I'd leave out personal details to make the post more helpful to the community more broadly, but I appreciate your wanting to specify your advice. ![]()
