In this episode of Hypertrophy: Past & Present, Jake and Chris use a 1967 Bill Pearl program to jump from the silver era into the early steroid era, showing how training volume exploded once anabolics entered the picture. They contrast Bill Pearl’s high-volume, six-day split and contrast it with his earlier natural-era programming, before diving into a new study comparing heavy versus light loads in trained lifters and what it really means for stimulating reps, volume load, and rep range choices.Key topics include:Bill Pearl’s 1967 high-volume, six-day split and how it differs from his natural-era routinesHow anabolic steroids break the feedback loop and drive the shift toward extreme training volumesA new heavy vs light load study in trained liftersWhat this means for the stimulating reps model, volume load, and rep ranges for natural vs enhanced lifters
