Content: This is vastly different than the type of training that fits your own individual context. Because we’re not professional athletes, we don’t have the luxury to structure our entire lives around optimizing every single variable of our workout routine. This is totally okay because we’re also not expected to reach a level of peak fitness that requires us to win and earn a living on the basis of our physical abilities. Therefore, when finding a strength training program, we need to look at our own individual context rather than comparing ourselves to professional athletes or those who simply have more time to dedicate to training. If our individual context only allows us to train once per week, despite it being less than what’s ideal, it can still contribute to positive strength outcomes. As I’ll detail later in this article, there is scientific research that shows support for a low-frequency training program.
