The New Fat Loss Stack Dominating Bodybuilding

This episode features Dom Kuza, the coach that other coaches turn to when they're stumped. With over 10 years of coaching experience and roles with Revive, Raw Nutrition, and Relive Health, Dom has built what might be the most comprehensive education platform for advanced coaches available today.TOP TAKEAWAYS: Why aggressive early dieting prevents end-stage desperation protocols The truth about trace fat diets and why they're sabotaging your progressRETA vs. Semaglutide vs. Tirzepatide: Which GLP-1 reigns supreme for fat loss How to match training intensity with nutritional intake to avoid stalls The underground injectable stack that's replacing traditional fat burners Why food variety matters until 6-8 weeks out (and when to eliminate it) The dosage protocols top coaches use for SLU and mitochondrial enhancementEPISODE BREAKDOWN:Nutrition Mastery for Advanced Athletes Dom reveals why he starts new clients with lower food intake and gradually feeds up - a counterintuitive approach that prevents the common trap of having nowhere to go when fat loss stalls. Learn his structured variety system that gives clients options while maintaining adherence, and why fruit consumption 2-3 times daily is non-negotiable for optimal micronutrient profiles.Contest Prep Without the SufferingDiscover the aggressive early-phase strategy that allows refeeding at 5,000+ calories 15 weeks out instead of surviving on ice chips. Dom exposes the major flaws he sees in incoming clients: lack of fruits and vegetables, dangerously low dietary fats, and the overuse of protein+vegetable-only approaches that create unsustainable dietary holes.Training Intensity vs. Volume: The Missing Link The breakthrough insight that changes everything: how to compensate for lower training intensity with strategic volume increases. Dom explains why some people need more sets due to inability to reach true mechanical failure, and how to assess this through video analysis rather than arbitrary programming.Advanced Enhancement Protocols Get inside access to the protocols Dom uses with competitors who placed at Junior Nationals. Learn why he's using 125mg Tren maximum, how RETA is replacing clenbuterol in modern prep, and the exact dosing strategies for SLU that are producing superior fat loss without excessive stimulants.The Future of Performance Enhancement Dom shares his experience with injectable ATP, data protocols, and why certain products work better for performance than physique goals. Plus insights into upcoming quad agonists and myostatin inhibitors that could change the enhancement landscape.CONNECT WITH DOM Kuza: Instagram: @Domkuza

Why 90% of Advanced Lifters Hit Plateaus

This week on the DDT Method podcast, Drew sits down with Kyle Baxter, a formally trained physiotherapist and biomechanics expert who's revolutionizing how advanced lifters approach training programming and movement quality.Kyle breaks down why most experienced lifters hit plateaus despite "doing everything right" and reveals his proven framework for sustainable hypertrophy programming that prioritizes movement quality over arbitrary program changes.EPISODE BREAKDOWN:Movement Quality Foundation Kyle explains his unique approach to building training programs that last 40+ weeks by establishing movement competency first, then layering in intensity and volume progression.The Dart Board Analogy Discover why accuracy in muscle targeting beats raw intensity every time, and how poor movement patterns cause even advanced lifters to "miss the dartboard" on hypertrophy.Periodization for Advanced Lifters Learn Kyle's take on the great periodization debate - linear progression vs. varied stimulus approaches - and why he sides with consistency over complexity.Volume Programming Strategy Kyle reveals how to determine individual recoverability and adjust volume based on actual training intensity rather than generic recommendations.Rib Cage & Pelvis Mechanics Advanced biomechanics breakdown: How rib cage position affects muscle fiber recruitment and why pelvis orientation is crucial for glute development.Cutting Phase Modifications Strategic programming adjustments for the final weeks of contest prep, including carb timing and volume manipulation to maintain training stimulus.Industry Critique Kyle's honest take on the biggest problems plaguing online coaching and why ego-driven content is hurting client results.ACTIONABLE STRATEGIES:The 3-category client assessment system for program modificationsHow to use ancillary movements to extend primary exercise runwayCarb timing protocols for maintaining training intensity during deep cutsExercise order manipulation for better muscle targetingCONNECT WITH KYLE BAXTER: Instagram: @CoachBaxter
