a sneaky underrated exercise variable to play with is rest
— Sam Sager (@sc_sager) March 15, 2023
the amount of rest between sets has a huge impact on the type of stress and adaption it creates

People don't actually work 40 hour work weeks and I regularly have to explain this to friends who are breaking themselves trying, so I figured I should write this down somewhere.https://t.co/OHawG2pxAP
