In today's episode I'm chatting with Dr. Doug McGuff (someone I've been wanting to have on for ages). He is one of the biggest figures behind the HIT and superslow training method, and is one of the most thoughtful people in the fitness world in general. He has one foot in emergency medicine and one in fitness (quite an undertaking)! In this episode I tried picking his brain on his reasoning behind deploying low volume, high intensity training techniques to the expense of volume and frequency, and tried to see if we can get to a common ground. Let's see how it turns out!
