Mikey Likes You with Mike Catherwood

Hey bro!!! So I asked you to ask me questions. That part went very well. I have done my best to answer said questions and that's what is on this pod. How much training, rest intervals, fat loss, getting a six pack, creatine, concerts and donkey shows...plus a whole lot moreSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Go Hard!!!! It's exhilarating. It simply can't be done with out adequate recovery to balance it out. Most people in the fitness world, are happy to get into the details of training and food, but they phone in the discussion on recovery. I will not phone it in. I will pod it in.

I have started to notice little things around the world that I think warrant a conversation. There are small mistakes and minor concerns that Im seeing people struggle with, and I wanted to take an episode to address them. Lifting straps, training footwear, squat and bench form, diet confusion, breathing technique and a bunch of other junk. I wanted to clear up some stuff that I think needs clearing.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Sal from Mindpump @mindpumpsal chats with me about his new book, "The Resistance Training Revolution." If you're familiar with my view or this podcast, you know that I am part of this revolution. I want everyone to understand the importance of weight training, and the misconceptions of cardio. Don't be scared of the weight room. You will not be a hulking bodybuilder or a vulgar, veiny animal. You will get lean and sculpted and you will continue to be disappointed with how you look and feel if you rely on cardio for your training. Listen and enjoy.

I've blathered on over and over about the importance of diet and weight training. These two factors are ALL you need to look better and improve markers of health. That doesn't mean that you can't do more. I know that many of you are still buying into the adage of cardio being better for your health but oh well. It isn't. It can be a useful adjust to training if you are wise and precise. This episode I give you a breakdown on how to be just that. The best way to implement cardio training for fat loss and health. How much, how long, how hard!See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

I said, "hey give me your questions." You all went, "totally." So I collected all of those questions and tried my best to answer them. This was the best collection of questions that you've sent in. Lots of really interesting and useful stuff. Motivation, inspiration, muscle gain, fat loss, and where to begin if you're a total beginner. Take a listen, and subscribe. It's lovely.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

There are plenty of mistakes made when it comes to getting leaner. As many misconceptions as there are with building muscle, there is considerably more with proper dieting. I dive into the major myths about weight loss and fat loss, and also the straight truth that lives behind them. Cardio, weight training, diet, lifestyle stuff...its all here baby.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Don't tolerate anything less than your standard. Our life gets molded by what we tolerate. Maybe it's little stuff and maybe its major issues, but you shouldn't be forced to tolerate mediocrity. The standards are getting lower and we must fight it. Look at Michelle Pfeiffer as Catwoman https://youtu.be/FaWwG41_A9k. This was the standard for an action star in the mid 90's. That shit is awesome. I get a little edgy on this episode and I don't mean to sound condescending. I just want us all to push forward with a standard that we deserve.

Ive talked at length about exercise selection and amount. This podcast is about exercise performance or form. It is the most important factor when it comes to training content. Having fundamentally sound movement patterns means that you're actually doing the exercise, as opposed to demonstrating something. Take a listen, I hope you like it.

So I went on my insta. I asked you to provide me questions. You guys gave me questions. Now I answer them on this podcast. How long to rest between sets, how to prep for being a fireman, how to construct a 5 x 5 program, movie recommendations, balancing weight training and jiu jitsu, how to grow them legs and much more.
