In the article, Greg explores under-representation of female participants within strength, hypertrophy, and supplement research. The discussion covers the extent of the disparity, the surprising observation that the gap is getting worse over time, and how this research imbalance impacts training and nutrition recommendations for female lifters. Next, Eric shares a Coach\\u2019s Corner segment about programming high-intensity interval training (HIIT) and sprint interval training (SIT) for lifters.
