The Architecture of Strength: A Deep Dive into Paul Carter's Base Building
: The system uses heavy singles performed before or after main volume sets to gauge progress. If these singles feel faster or easier, it indicates an increase in strength.
Involves "hops" (mini-sets) where weight increases while reps remain constant until failure, allowing for joint protection and auto-regulation.
. His philosophy rejects the idea of "short-circuiting" progress. Instead, he emphasizes a "blue-collar" approach to training: Consistency over Intensity
