    So, increase the weight and get a real workout.



    Total time under tension x weight = total work performed. Weekly workload is silly to argue with - this means everything.

    Yeah it's better for your joints too. Years of running will just wear you out. Ancestors outsmarted prey, they didn't outrun them... we're not built to run.

    As you get more muscle you can lift heavier weights, yes.

    You just need to provide stimulus the muscle isn't accustomed to (people who walk all day don't suddenly get huge calves - their body is...

    No they won't always grow back bigger. You have 2 constant ongoing processes - protein synthesis (anabolism) and protein desynthesis (catabolism). They can each run at different rates at any point...

    Whey - probably safe. Check that you have healthy kidneys first. Lots of protein can be hard on kidneys if you don't drink plenty of water.

  • You can squat more weight with normal descent...

    You can squat more weight with normal descent speed due to the stretch reflex. More weight = more tension = more stimulus. If you want more volume = total time under tension, then do more sets.
