MED (Minimum.Effective.Dose)

The Strength Standard

Coach
Brian Loomis

Lets redefine your prime.

Gone are your days of high school & college routines spending hours in the gym. You need a solution that fits your life now.

I've spent 10 years designing a system that increases power, strength & speed in the most efficient and effective way possible that also respects your time.

The minimum effective dose refers to the smallest amount of stimulus required to produce a desired outcome. In resistance training, it’s the least amount of work you need to do to achieve specific goals.

For many, the idea of doing less and still seeing results can seem counterintuitive. After all, the "more is better" mentality is deeply ingrained in fitness culture. However, research and experience show that more isn’t always better—especially when it comes to resistance training. The key is to apply just enough stimulus to trigger the desired adaptations in your body without unnecessary excess.

The concept of the Minimum Effective Dose (MED) training team is that it offers a powerful tool for anyone looking to achieve their training goals in the most efficient, sustainable way. Understanding and applying the MED can help you train smarter, not harder.

Take a moment to reflect on your current training regimen. Are you doing too much? Could you achieve the same—or even better—results with less? The minimum effective dose approach could be the key to unlocking your full potential while saving you time and energy.

Improved Recovery:
By avoiding unnecessary volume, your body has more time and resources to recover. This can lead to better long-term progress and reduce the risk of injury.

Avoiding Overtraining:
Overtraining can lead to burnout, decreased performance, and increased injury risk. Following MED helps you avoid this by focusing on quality over quantity.

Consistent Progress:
With MED, you can maintain consistent progress without the peaks and valleys that often come with more aggressive training approaches. This approach is sustainable and can be maintained long-term.
