I take down notes when I talk to clients or when people reach out to me asking for advice. I created this episode from the questions I get and the struggles people have when reaching a plateau, and seeing what they do that gets them in “trouble.” Most people make these training mistakes that hold back their progress.
IN THIS EPISODE YOU’LL LEARN:
=> Why trying to make great progress when it’s already good is the reason your results are stalling.
=> The truth about how much gains you can make in muscle and strength (even as a beginner).
=> The mistake you make that makes you think you’ve had a huge progress from week to week (this is an insight most don’t know).
=> You should be on a program, but you already know that. Structure and tracking are your missing link to gains!
=> One of the biggest training mistakes people make when trying to lose fat (this will kill your muscle gains AND you won’t get leaner).
=> When lowering calories your program should do this.
=> The best way to know your training frequency is too high (and you’re likely creating the wrong splits for yourself).
=> Abusing stimulants to mask fatigue (I used to do this often) will lead to a crash and reverse your results. Here’s why.
=> What difference types of cardio are there and which ones should YOU focus on and why.
=> Why trying to do all types of cardio together doesn’t usually get you the results you want.
=> Examples of 4 week cardio programs I’d add to strength training.
=> Why the “boring” aerobic cardio is so important to your health AND performance.
=> The biggest mistakes people make when it comes to their cardio training.
