Since maximum strength is an externally-measured outcome, it cannot be stimulated to increase directly. We must instead create a range of specific underlying adaptations, each of which have their own unique stimuli. ## Actions - request_transcript: `POST https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/high-performance-physiology-7551881/episodes/002-maximum-strength/transcription-requests` — Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode. - read_markdown: `GET https://stenobird.com/podcast/high-performance-physiology-7551881/002-maximum-strength.md` — Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource.
