Send us a textIn this Fusion Hack, Allyson Spungin and Drew Brannon break down the truth behind junk volume—one of the most misunderstood concepts in resistance training. They explain how proper volume is built through intentional working sets, why warm-ups, feeders, and back-off sets are not counted as true volume, and how progressive overload should be tracked over time without ego-driven weight jumps.This episode clarifies how volume must be individualized based on athlete experience, biofeedback, readiness, and training phase, while dispelling the myth that weight must increase every week to see progress. You’ll also learn how accessory work supports growth, when higher-rep volume is appropriate, and how to manage rest intervals to maximize performance and recovery.Allyson Spungin is the Director of Training, Programming, and Educational Development for Fitbody Fusion and a Master Trainer with more than a decade of hands-on experience. Based in Scottsdale, AZ and originally from Connecticut, she launched her fitness career in New York City in 2014 and has since built a reputation for science-backed coaching that elevates both general-population clients and athletes.

A national-level NPC Bikini competitor and long-time Fitbody Fusion athlete, she’s preparing for another run on the national stage in 2026.
