On today's episode of the Flex Diet Podcast, I interview Brian Borstein, who conducted a unique experiment focused on training only one arm for an extended period. Brian measured various parameters, including strength, circumference, and even underwent DEXA scans before and after the experiment. The conversation also delves into the topic of cardiovascular development, particularly when the goal is hypertrophy or adding muscle size. We also whether incorporating cardio is necessary in such scenarios and what type of cardio is most suitable.
