It took a while, but my new main article on strength training is finally online! I've been planning this for some time, and there will be more articles on individual parts of the topic soon. For now, I wanted to explain the basics first. Things like training volume, intensity, frequency and how muscle growth actually works.
There's quite a bit more to strength training than walking into a gym and lifting the heaviest weight you can find. If you understand the fundamentals, it becomes much easier to make sense of training plans and decide what works for you. That's what I want this article to help with.
