Train Smarter, Not Longer
The Minimum Effective Dose for Muscular Development

Making gains, made easy.

It may sound too good to be true, but you can build muscle and get stronger with very little training, even if you’re a gym veteran. Train Smarter, Not Longer: The Minimum Effective Dose for Muscular Development explores how you can apply the minimum effective dose (MED) principle to resistance training, so you can be sure that you’re not wasting unnecessary time in the gym.

The theory of MED in resistance training is a valuable tool for any experience level. Find the sweet spot and create a routine that pushes you hard enough to see real results, without spending countless hours in the gym. Sample programs and practical examples included in the book help to determine the best approach for your lifestyle and goals.

The science of resistance training can seem overwhelming, but this book is designed to translate the important concepts into easily digestible chapters, including a ton of ready-to-use training templates. The fundamentals of resistance training, nutrition, and recovery are all included, so wherever you’re at in your training journey, there’s something to be learned about how to get the most out of your routine. Not only is the information designed to be easy to read, but it’s also backed by years of scientific research.

The book will be out in June 2026, but you can pre-order it now!
