Ep 116How Fast You Lose Muscle When You Don’t Lift

In this episode of the Lifting Lindsay Podcast, Lindsay addresses the concerns and misinformation regarding muscle loss, particularly during periods of reduced physical activity.

She shares her personal experience of dealing with significant life events, including pregnancy and a miscarriage, which led to a temporary halt in her training routine and a noticeable change in her body composition.

Ep 112Bands Around Knees Is Useless? New Study Breakdown

Lindsay discusses the contention surrounding banding exercises, particularly squats, hip thrusts, and glute bridges. She explains that while bands can sometimes be used as a learning tool for beginners, regular use can lead to decreased performance and diminished muscle growth. Lindsay debunks the popular belief that banding exercises contribute significantly to glute development and suggests that genetics, well-rounded exercise routines and quality movements are the actual causes of good muscle development. She disagrees with the trend where bands are used throughout the entire workout routine, which is often disseminated on social media. Lindsay concludes by reminding viewers that her optimized training programs do not include banding exercises which have been proven by studies and expert opinions to hinder workout performance and muscle growth.Chapters:00:39 Why do people band?06:02 Biomechanics have debunked these theories for years09:03 Studying the impact of bands around knees to hip thrusts11:14 But it's not going to hurt anything to band, is it?13:02 We need more studies on women15:48 Your feelings don't equate to truth nor hypertrophy20:35 If you're looking for optimized training programsMy Community BeStrong doesn’t just provide Training programs but NOW includes MEAL PLANNING!!!
