Training Intensity Made Simple: RPE, RIR, and Percentages Explained

from The Absolute Strength Podcast · host Kyle Hunt

In this episode, Derek and I break down the differences between percentages, RPE, and RIR, and how each one actually fits into smart programming. We talk about when percentage-based work makes sense, why autoregulation matters, and how to use all three methods together without turning your training into something overly complicated.   Sign up for the newsletter: https://kylehuntfitness.beehiiv.com/subscribe   Coaching:  http://www.kylehuntfitness.com/services/   Training Programs: https://kylehuntfitness.shop/collections/programs   Get 10% OFF PR Breaker Supplements: DISCOUNT CODE: "HUNT" at https://www.prbreaker.com/discount/HUNT
