ADVICE

Lock Sleep And Calories First

  • Prioritize sleep and adequate calories before blaming programming for lack of muscle gains.
  • Aim for consistent eight hours of sleep and sufficient food to provide resources for muscle growth.
INSIGHT

Strength Gains Predict Muscle Growth

  • Getting stronger is the clearest objective sign your program builds muscle, especially in early training years.
  • Strength gains often precede visible muscle increases as the CNS adapts first.
ADVICE

Don't Train To Failure Constantly

  • Avoid training to failure most of the time; it increases stress and requires reduced volume.
  • Train around 80% intensity regularly and reserve failure for rare, controlled phases.
