The overall tone and content reveal strong support and curiosity about the study, with users sharing detailed interpretations such as the effectiveness of 1-3 heavy sets per week (e.g., 'a few high load sets'), and expressing enthusiasm about the publication being open access, which shows active engagement and recognition of its importance for athletic training. Words like 'excited' and references to practical recommendations highlight the perceived impact of the research on how powerlifters might optimize their routines.
AgreementModerate agreement
Most discussions support the idea that a small volume of high-load training can produce meaningful strength gains, reflecting general agreement with the publication's conclusions.
InterestHigh interest
Participants show high interest by sharing links, commenting on methodology, and expressing excitement about the research findings, indicating strong engagement with the topic.
EngagementHigh engagement
Posts reference specific research details, mention practical applications, and discuss the implications for training routines, demonstrating deep engagement.
ImpactModerate impact
The conversations suggest that this research could influence training practices, with some posts emphasizing the significance of minimal effective doses for efficiency in strength training.
Abstract in brief
This study explored the minimum amount of training needed for powerlifters to see meaningful strength gains, finding that performing around 36 sets of 15 reps weekly at loads above 80% 1RM with moderate effort (RPE 75-95) over 6-12 weeks can be effective.
Athletes looking to save time can perform heavier single reps at RPE 9-10 but may see smaller gains, and adding some backoff sets at 80% of those singles could enhance strength improvements.
When including accessory exercises, powerlifters tend to do about 1-3 exercises per lift with efforts rated RPE 7-9 and in the range of 6-10 reps, which supports strength development within the minimal effective dose framework.]
Open Access - Free to download- Very excited to be able to finally share the journal-formatted version of our “minimum dose” study with the world! This multi-experiment paper includes 5 studies on powerlifters and the concept of the minimum dose!

Samme funn for maksimal styrke. Man ser også lignende funn i studiene til Androkulakis-Korakakis et al., 2021. Denne er spennende da det er gjort på styrkeløftere på høyt nivå. Se her https://t.co/aqcvT1yqGR https://t.co/coWBLbgeKH

It may also look like:
~3-6 working sets of 1-5 repetitions each week (~80% 1RM at a Rate of Perceived Exertion (RPE) of 7.5-9.5).
or
autoregulated single repetition sets at an RPE of 9-9.5. Which either could take around 10-20 minutes.

@JYKines Sure & check full text for more details. Worth noting that we have seen meaningful strength increases in pretty strong powerlifters with a few heavy sets per (eg: 1-3 sets for the DL /week) - https://t.co/GjI4znynhu
