Today I am talking with Joe Jeffery from Physique Collective. We dive into some recent travel Joe has been on to see clients compete and ask the question if it’s important for a coach to be there on show day. Then we dive into how to find a good coach and also what makes a good bodybuilding coach before finishing with some discussion surrounding new literature coming out surrounding range of motion and relative intensity as it pertains to hypertrophy.Timestamps:00:00 Intro04:43 Subjectivity in physique sports08:57 Conditioning vs. shape and balance10:40 How important is it to be present as a coach19:51 How long has Joe been coaching and how has online coaching evolved?27:38 What to look for in a coach31:19 Natty vs. enhanced bodybuilding34:52 When the bros are right.

Zac Robinson, researcher and expert in muscle hypertrophy, discusses the influence of estimated proximity to failure on muscle growth. They explore the challenges of estimating Repetitions in Reserve (RIR) and the trade-off between volume and intensity in training. The podcast also covers the implications of training to failure on muscle gain, the debate between machine-based and free weight exercises, and recommendations for further reading.

Brad Schoenfeld is back on the show and as always it’s a deep dive into hypertrophy.In today's episode, we talk about some recent research out of Brad’s lab, dig into training at long muscle lengths, low-load training and the mechanisms of hypertrophy.
