RPE - rating of perceived exertion - based resistance training is quickly gaining popularity. To be candid I wasn't aware if there was any research to support it despite it making sense. So I looked around and here's a brand new study I found. In the applications segment John talks through the philosophy of using planned RPE based training vs. adjusting on the fly. John always reviews the full text of every article, but to see the abstract of the study discussed, click here: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/24378665
