Despite some problems with the weekly structure, the relatively low number of sets per exercise and surprisingly comprehensive exercise selection make it one of the more interesting Golden-Era routines covered on so far!\nThe conversation then turns to a common question: do different muscles actually require different numbers of sets or different training frequencies?\nKey topics include:\nAn early female bodybuilding six-day-per-week routine and how it differs from modern female training programs\nWhy hypertrophy being muscle-fibre specific challenges the idea that larger muscles inherently require more sets\nWhether slow-twitch dominant muscles such as the calves, quads, glutes and traps can tolerate more training volume\nWhy being able to recover from additional sets does not necessarily mean those sets will produce substantially more hypertrophy\nHow exercise selection changes volume tolerance, including the difference between exercises that load muscles in lengthened versus shortened positions\nHow to adjust volume slightly upward or downward depending on the muscle, exercise, individual recovery and training goals\nWant to train like a Silver-Era bodybuilder?
