447: The Best Rep Ranges & Rest Time Length - Dan Plotkin

In today’s episode, I’m joined by Daniel Plotkin, a PhD candidate specializing in Molecular and Applied Muscle Physiology.

Daniel’s expertise lies in muscle building, fat loss, and health science, and we dive deep into hypertrophy fundamentals and the science behind it.

We cover the optimal rep ranges for growth, the role of rest periods, and how to tailor training for maximum gains. Daniel also introduces us to the PEEL method, a framework that brings scientific insight into practical application for better, evidence-based training.
