What does the science really say about resistance training for women?
In this conversation with Professor William Kraemer, one of the most cited exercise scientists in history, you’ll hear the lessons from five decades of research on strength training, program design, and women’s responses to training.
You’ll learn:
• Why women can safely follow the same strength principles as men
• What the early large-scale female training studies actually showed
• How symptomatology (sleep, hot flushes, joint pain) shapes menopause training
• The fundamentals of sets, reps, loads, and rest for women
• How to use flexible non-linear periodisation in real life
• Why context, not theory, determines whether training advice works
