In this episode of the Discover Strength Podcast, CEO Luke Carlson is joined by esteemed strength training researcher Dr. James Fisher for a special “10 Questions” conversation. With over 130 scientific publications to his name, Dr. Fisher dives deep into some of the most pressing topics in resistance training today—from the science behind training at long muscle lengths and the most common myths about women and strength training, to the minimal effective dose for strength gains and the role of supervision in maximizing workout outcomes. They also explore Dr. Fisher’s thoughts on optimal training intensity, misconceptions around volume, strength training for older adults, and underappreciated cognitive benefits. This wide-ranging, research-backed discussion is packed with practical insights for fitness professionals and enthusiasts alike.
