James, In response to your first point, how do you know Darden has no scientific research to support his statement? In response to your second question, I...

I recently found a reference to a study that analyzed the results of 140 other studies on training frequency, intensity and number of sets. Although you cannot...

Okay, I usually do two sets to failure (or failure of proper form at least, don't want to get hurt). But the soreness! I am doing these things where you hang...

Dr Bob, I don't know how wise lifting in the morning and football practise in the evening is as the evening practise would intrude on recovery. If weight...
Hi Impy, I had a job in nightfill/dock during the Christmas holidays where not only finding the time for a workout was hard, but also sleep and recovery time...
I personally go until failure. Sometimes that is 7 reps, but sometimes I've hit 17 reps. As you start getting more rest between workouts it seems as though the...
