In this episode, Emily and AJ break down the science and strategy behind hypertrophy training—what it really means to build muscle and why it matters far beyond aesthetics. From improving metabolism and insulin sensitivity to supporting bone density and long-term functional health, this conversation reframes resistance training as a cornerstone of sustainable wellness.
They also dive deep into one of the most misunderstood topics in lifting: fatigue vs. true muscular failure, explaining how to recognize the difference and why it matters for real progress. This is Part 1 of a 2-part series focused on helping busy people train smarter, not just harder.
