The latest research on lengthened partials, regional hypertrophy, and isometrics for growth - With PhD Candidate Dorian Varović - Ep. 183

Dorian Varović is a coach and a researcher, currently working on his PhD on muscle length and regional muscle hypertrophy.He and his colleagues also recently conducted a very interesting study comparing regular resistance training and isometrics for hypertrophy.In this conversation, we delve into all these topics:The latest research on the importance of training muscles at long muscle lengthsHow training at long muscle lengths may or may not affect regional hypertrophyAre isometrics as good as regular training for growth?… And more!Links and resources:“Does Muscle Length Influence Regional Hypertrophy?
