Hi friends! This episode is about the science of muscle building and resistance training with Dr. Samuel Buckner. Dr. Buckner is the director of the USF Muscle Lab, which focuses on skeletal muscle adaptation, and their current work places an emphasis on understanding the relationship between resistance training volume and skeletal muscle growth adaptations. Dr. Buckner has over 120 manuscripts published in peer-reviewed journals, and has received recognition for his contributions in the areas of “Strength training” and “periodization”.

0:32.4 | skeletal muscle in terms of hypertrophy and strength and understanding the relationship between resistance training of volume and skeletal muscle growth. |
0:43.3 | He really has an interest on the limits and the rates of human skeletal muscle growth and what the actual changes that one can expect in their muscle size could look like over time. |
0:55.8 | So he does some amazing research and really has so much experience and knowledge. |
1:01.3 | And today's episode, we really focus on the fundamentals, starting from what scale to muscle is exactly. |
