Another chat with the younger TikTok generation. Yo shares some of his experiences with Paul Carter and Chris Beardsley as well.

Kassem and Matt take on the rising popularity of certain fitness advice (and misinformation) promoted across TikTok. Learn to filter out the truth from trash.

Is there a blacklist for those who question the research?

Kassem sits down with Garret walker to discuss the good, bad, and ugly side of content claiming to be 'science based' in the fitness industry.

There is a lot more to program design than linear straight sets. There is much debate on whether specialty set methods and pairings can be used to grow more muscle. A lot of this has to do with what constraints you have on training time and effort. In the right context, supersets, drop sets, paired sets, rest pause and more can be ways to get gains in less time, or more gains when time is limited. Coach Kassem has been teaching a comprehensive approach to these things at N1 for quite some time and today he sits down to discuss them with Dr. Eric Helms Eric has been using these methods to make progress as an advanced lifter and pro bodybuilder who is also constrained on time. He has a history with the methods both in practice and in the research field. The best way to keep up with Eric is to join is Research Review at https://massresearchreview.com

In Part 2 with Dr. De Souza, we get a sneak peak into a study that hasn't been published yet, but contrasting to the "52 weekly set" paper, this one did not find higher volume to be better for hypertrophy. In the second hour, we take on the topic of lengthened partials in a bit of a debate format, where Kassem takes on the position to defend the lengthened partials, and finishes with his actual nuanced thoughts on lengthened biased training and training variability.

Part 1 of 2 with Dr. Eduardo De Souza whose lab has been doing ton's of studies on volume including the famous 52 weekly sets study. We start the discussion with a much needed preface of how confident are we actually in measuring hypertrophy outcomes. Then we progress into the validity of studies on high volume. In part 2 we will continue the discussion on volume including discussing some yet to be published work that may surprise you, and we will finish off with a debate on long muscle lengths and lengthened partials. This is where your favorite influencers and coaches get their information and inspiration.

Dr Eric Helms returns for another episode of The N1 Experience. This time exercise science is on the ropes and Kassem challenges Eric to white pill him on the current state of exercise science communication. This episode really peels back the curtain on exercise science, and some of the harsh realities consumers face navigating social media and when trying to know who to trust.
