Maintenance Volume MV
- This is the amount of training (aka number of sets) that allows you to maintain your current level of muscular size.
Minimum Effective Volume MEV
- This is the amount of training that actually grows your muscles: anything below this amount may only maintain them.
Maximum Adaptive Volume MAV
- This is the range of volume in which the most optimal muscle gains happen.
Maximum Recoverable Volume MRV
- The range of volumes in which you make your best gains. It’s much more of a range than the other volume landmarks because it changes greatly within each training microcycle (week to week).
