Carl Juneau, PhD

Carl is an exercise scientist with a PhD in physical activity epidemiology. He is also the founder of the Dr. Muscle app.

• Theory of effective reps
• Influence of mechanical tension, muscle damage and metabolic stress on hypertrophy
• Does metabolic stress really cause hypertrophy? Or is it just a by-product of mechanical tension?
• Methods to make use of a higher number of effective reps: rest-pause, myo-reps, drop sets, etc.
• Exercise selection for such methods
• Role of rest intervals: the U-shaped curve developed by Carl Juneau and James Krieger
• How strategies change with experience level
