#223 - Intensity & Volume for the Advanced Lifter: Can't We Just Be Friends?

Summary: Matt and Scott have discussed the primary programming variables of volume and intensity many times, but there's a persistent idea that "volume" and "intensity" happen in discrete workouts, at separate times. This idea probably stems from popular early intermediate programs like the Texas Method, which prescribes dedicated volume (5x5) and intensity (1x5) days for each lift. Indeed, this approach works well for a long time, but eventually the advancing lifter faces a problem.
