#546 How To Combine Volume & Intensity To Create The Perfect Workout

Author: Joe DeFranco November 6, 2025 Duration: 49:50
Very unique show this week as Joe had to record the podcast from his truck in the parking lot of a hospital (during his dad's shoulder replacement surgery!) But, there is still a ton of value (and entertainment) packed into this episode :) Joe kicks off the show with a funny "pre-surgery George D. story" and a "MuscleUpNovember" supplement sale reminder  before getting into the training talk. Specifically, this week's show is a follow-up from last week's episode on "high volume vs high intensity". Joe answers 2 follow-up questions from his audience then explains exactly how to "get the best of both worlds" (high volume AND high intensity) in a single workout/program. He shares 2 specific training templates that combine high volume WITH high intensity in order to create the "perfect workout"! *For a full list of Show Notes with Timestamps visit www.IndustrialStrengthShow.com.

Tune into Joe DeFranco's Industrial Strength Show for a raw, unfiltered look at what it takes to build a stronger body and a sharper mind. Hosted by Joe DeFranco, a world-renowned strength coach whose name carries serious weight in athletic circles, this podcast goes far beyond simple workout tips. Each episode feels like a conversation pulled right from the floor of DeFranco's Gym, blending hard-earned wisdom on training for peak performance with crucial discussions on the mental fortitude required to succeed. Joe doesn't just theorize; he draws directly from his own journey of transforming a tiny 500-square-foot storage closet into a globally recognized fitness brand, offering practical business and life lessons alongside the fitness talk. You'll hear him dive deep into listener questions, breaking down complex concepts into actionable advice, and sit down for candid interviews with top athletes who have lived the principles he teaches. The result is a uniquely balanced listen that educates, motivates, and often entertains, providing a holistic toolkit for anyone passionate about elevating their game-whether that's in the gym, in business, or in their personal mindset. This isn't a polished, corporate production; it's industrial strength knowledge delivered straight from the source.
