Summary
In this episode of Hypertrophy Past & Present , Jake and Chris break down what fatigue actually is, and why most lifters misunderstand it. The episode begins with a deep dive into a late Silver Era full body program from Joe Abenda, before expanding into a practical framework for understanding intra-workout and post-workout fatigue, and how this relates to the total number of exercises in a session. Key topics include: • A breakdown of Joe Abenda’s Silver Era beginner full body program • Why most people confuse fatigue with motivation • The difference between intra-workout fatigue and post-workout fatigue • How exercise selection, reps, and rest periods determine fatigue more than just total number of exercises • How to structure workouts to minimise fatigue and maximise performance across the entire session
