How do they exercise so intensely most days with such small rest periods?
In: Biology
Body builders train differently from weightlifters and powerlifters. Body builders train to achieve greatest muscle mass, which involve repping to failure and giving enough time to rest. (Olympic) weightlifters and powerlifters train to achieve maximal strength, which involves controlling the volume, rest times in between sets, and training load to target different muscle groups at different intensities during their weekly, monthly, and competition cycles.
