0:00.0	Well, what's going on, Beesha's welcome to the Daily Swole podcast. Episode 3,277, Saturday, April the 26th, Rufus says hello.
0:11.6	Today we are talking about figuring out your individual recovery. What do I mean by this?
0:24.2	I was in the Swole butterfly garden and I was musing upon my training split and what I've been currently doing and testing as I'm always testing.
0:31.9	I'm giving full effort and seeing how things work and then adjusting. And I was thinking about because I've been
0:42.0	training a little bit more with volume in certain areas and playing around with that. And really what
0:49.1	I'm talking about whenever we discuss training intensity and volume and frequency, it really comes down to what
0:56.6	you can recover from.
0:58.1	And I know that in going all out on one set, it'll take me a day in between, right?
1:04.6	Like a Monday, Wednesday.
1:07.1	So for me, it's really 48 hours, 4 8 hours for one set, but then maybe 72 if I do two sets, depending on the exercise.
1:23.0	So I know if I decide, because I don't force myself to do one set for one exercise.
1:30.0	If I feel like doing two sets, I do two sets.
1:33.1	That might be shocking.
1:34.4	Maybe that's not shocking.
1:36.7	But I do it based on how I feel.
1:39.0	Yesterday I did T. Barr, Row.
1:40.3	And I felt like dropping the weight a little bit and doing another set of five or six reps and then doing some Kelso shrug. So I decided to send it on back thickness, right, on the rhomboids and the middle traps and stuff yesterday. I just decided to do a few sets there. And I feel it today. I feel the extra volume. So, of course, I'm going to take a little bit more recovery before I hit those movements. Again, I'll probably do more of a lat focused exercise if I train in a day or two.
2:08.3	So in other words, just know what your limits are and know when you need and learn to catch
2:14.8	this before you get on the back end of overtraining or something like that.
2:20.1	And that's really what I've been kind of pushing on lately in the episodes.
2:23.4	It's really about catching it before it becomes a problem because you're putting your body under stress.
2:28.6	And you're putting your body through some shit.
