Pain in the Hypertrophy Loop

 Physical conditioning review :


  • - dopamine correlates with pain ( probably not true for everyone : if it doesn't correlate for you, pain will be more depressing )
  • - dopamine without pain is dysfunctional ( causes upstream diversion / cognitive distraction from hypertrophic activities )
  • - the conclusion of this study is that I need to use pain as a leading indicator of how much exercise to do, and often the issue is ( not enough pain -> not enough exercise )


Again, it will differ for others. But this appears to be my physiology.
