Episode 334: Max Gains, Less Time: Myo-Reps, Hypertrophy & Recovery with Dr. Antonella Schwarz
Flex Diet Podcast - A podcast by Dr. Mike T Nelson

On this episode of the Flex Diet Podcast, I’m joined by Dr. Antonella Schwarz to geek out over her recent study on myo-reps, which she presented at the International Society of Sports Nutrition. We break down what myo-reps are, where the concept came from, and how they stack up against more traditional hypertrophy protocols.

Dr. Schwarz shares how she uses myo-reps in her own training and why performance-based goals are such a big deal. Plus, she gives us a sneak peek at her upcoming research. If you’re a coach, trainer, or just a curious nerd like me, you’ll get a ton out of this one. Enjoy!
