In this episode of Hypertrophy: Past and Present, Jake and Chris explore Sig Klein’s early A/B full body routine from the pre-steroid bodybuilding era before examining the claim that elevated myofibrillar protein synthesis blunts the effectiveness of subsequent workouts.
Key topics include:
- Sig Klein’s beginner routine
- The difference between myofibrillar protein synthesis and hypertrophy stimulus

- Why any overlap effect is small (and irrelevant for single-set workouts)
- Why the weekly net stimulus still favours three times per week over two times per week training
