More Sets or More Weight? If You Only Have 30 Min, Do This

More Sets or More Weight? If You Only Have 30 Min, Do This

What’s better for strength: high volume or high intensity? If you only have limited time to train, should you focus on doing more sets… or lifting heavier weight?

In this episode, Starting Strength Coach Grant Broggi breaks down the real difference between volume and intensity, why most busy adults overcomplicate strength training, and how to build serious strength even with a packed schedule. From 5x5 vs 3x5 to training as a dad, business owner, or active duty Marine, this conversation explains how to keep getting stronger when life gets chaotic.

If you’ve ever wondered how little training you can get away with while still making progress, this episode is for you.
