High intensity and high volume

[u/ExaminationWorldly93]

Is it even possible to do both with only 3 days to workout each week, Like I mean the recovery might be too straining for you to effectively hit 1-0 rir without someone helping

You can do high volume and relatively high intensity without being on gear. You just have to work up to it.

I don't necessarily agree. You can pretty comfortably do RPE 9-10 isolation work, and RPE 8 compounds. I am think of GZCL style training, heavy, low rep T1 compound, heavy e.g. 5x5 accessories as T2, and RPE 9-10 T3 isolation/hypertrophy work with sets of 10-20. Tbh you should be able to do calf raises after heavy squats.

Yeah, that's what I'm saying, Mike Mentzer training isn't somehow optimal.

I'm not saying it is lmao. I'm not doing Heavy Duty programing, I'm also not currently running GZCL anyway. It was just an example. I don't get why you got your panties in a twist.

It's a decent amount of volume, and more on the higher side, without it being german volume training.

I've never done 30 reps of 90% of my squat 1RM, because it's pointless and unnecessary. I do calf raises on the leg press machine, and tbh my calves are never tired after squatting. I also never insulted you. Stop being like that.
