In this episode of the Total Fitness Bodybuilding Podcast we dive deep into the truth about testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) - busting myths, sharing real experiences, and setting the record straight.

We also discuss: ✅ How hard work still beats shortcuts — even with hormone support. ✅ How to lead your family into healthy fitness and nutrition habits without forcing it. ✅ Balancing real life with your bodybuilding and fitness goals. ✅ Effective meal prep strategies and dealing with food cravings in real world situations. ✅ Long-term goal setting, staying motivated, and respecting the process. Whether you're navigating TRT, trying to build sustainable habits, or simply want real talk about fitness, nutrition, and mindset — this episode brings honest conversations from real people who are walking the walk. 💪 Want to learn more about the Muscle After 40 Blueprint Coaching Program?

Progressive Overload is the foundation of strength training. And when you're brand new it's easy to add an extra 5 pounds to a lift, or pump out an extra rep per set, etc. But as you become more advanced those 5 pound jumps in weight become harder and harder to make. And a lot of times guys end up getting injured when trying to increase the weight from week to week. In this video, we explore another variation of progressive overload for advanced lifters. This goes totally against what you've probably been doing, but it can help you break through plateaus, and do so while preventing injury in the process. Whether you're a powerlifter, bodybuilder, or just a hardcore fitness enthusiast who's looking to get stronger, this podcast will help you understand how to better use progressive overload and steady state strength training in your fitness journey.
