a.kowalczyk, post #21: Frequency matters less than consistency and progression. Two sessions a week done every week beats four sessions done occasionally. Flagging that the sources on this are thinner than the confidence in the thread suggests. Go to post

Nothing here is medical advice and anybody with a relevant condition should have a programme reviewed by somebody qualified rather than assembled from a forum.

Building on post #30 rather than restating it.

The reports here that state the programme, the load and the timeframe are useful. The ones that state an outcome are not.

Second-hand, so weight it accordingly.
