When you hear the word rookie, what do you think? What initially pops into your head? You probably think of a beginner or novice athlete, or someone in their first year on the job, like a rookie police officer. Or, maybe you think of the baseball movie with Dennis Quaid, isn't that called The Rookie? It has been 15 years since I have seen it but, I thought it was pretty good. I am a sucker for a sports movie. Regardless, when you hear the word rookie, you also probably think of the expression, "rookie mistake." That is what we are going to focus on today, specifically, five rookie powerlifting mistakes. 1: Trying to hit unrealistically big PRs at the meet. 2: Doing too much or too little hypertrophy work. 3: Overvaluing the program. 4: Not competing frequently enough. 5: Not thinking enough about longevity. Although I call these rookie mistakes, these mistakes are not limited to rookies. Sit back, relax, and enjoy!

In this episode, I answer seven listener questions. Questions on the show: What are your favorite training splits for building muscle? How often do you program touch and go reps on the bench press for your powerlifting clients? I have heard you talk about the concept of "junk volume" on the podcast before, but how does someone know if the amount of volume they are doing is junk volume? In general, how long should you rest between sets? Realistically, how frequently should you be hitting new PRs? What do you say to a client who had a bad training session or a bad meet day performance? If someone wants to compete in bodybuilding/physique and powerlifting, how do you recommend doing that from a scheduling standpoint?

Shredded, jacked, ripped, or toned, regardless of the terminology used to describe it, most people go to the gym with the same goal; to improve their body composition. The quest to build muscle and lose fat has led to a fascination in the fitness community around measuring body fat percentage. But, is that fascination warranted? Is body fat percentage something you need to track? Sit back, relax, and enjoy!

Bodybuilding has a long history as a physique transformation tool. Tales of Eugen Sandow lifting and flexing go back as far as the late 1800s. You can even follow along throughout history and read about how bodybuilders such as Steve Reeves, John Grimek, Reg Park, Arnold, Franco, Dorian, and Ronnie, trained and dieted. Learning the best practices of each era is fascinating. I would call the past decade the "evidence-based era." As more research around training and nutrition becomes available, it shapes our thought process on what the rules of bodybuilding are. In today's episode, we dig into the new rules of bodybuilding. What are the current best practices for determining training volume, rep ranges, and how often you should go to failure? How important is beating the logbook? What are the best exercises for building muscle, and is there a better way to cut and bulk? Sit back, relax, and enjoy!

In this episode, the topic of discussion is the effectiveness of using a bodybuilding routine for general fitness and the most important variables to track for efficient results in the gym. When discussing general fitness, first we need to define what that means. Of course, it will be different for everyone, but to me, it comes down to four qualities: body composition, strength, cardiovascular health, and longevity. Is bodybuilding the best method for developing those four qualities? What about other fitness modalities, is there a better way? We have all heard the expression "what gets measured, gets managed," but when it comes to fitness, what should we measure? Sit back, relax, and enjoy!

Are there any benefits to incorporating speed/power training for raw powerlifters? If someone trains late in the afternoon is there a "minimum effective dose" of caffeine that will allow you to still see some benefits without negatively impacting sleep?

Patience is one of the fundamental truths of training as a natural athlete. Without the use of anabolic steroids, you have to do a lot of things right, over a long time, to make serious gains. Dedication, desire, and discipline are all prerequisites but alone are not enough. Maximizing progress requires giving yourself every advantage possible. It's paramount to follow a well-constructed training program, get adequate rest and recovery, sleep eight or more hours per night, and spend as much time in a caloric surplus or at least maintenance as possible. Building muscle is hard. It's even harder without adequate calorie intake. Luckily, the caloric surplus doesn't need to be large. The days of "dirty bulking" are over. The truth is, only a few hundred extra calories per day will do the trick, but there are no shortcuts in physiology. Even a small to moderately sized caloric surplus will eventually result in the accumulation of body fat. So, how do we balance building muscle and strength optimally, without getting too fat? And, how do we avoid sabotaging our progress by spending too much time in a caloric deficit? As you may have assumed from the title, this is where mini-cuts enter the picture.

Over the years, I find myself thinking more and more about the basics. The truth is if you have been around fitness for a few years, it's likely you know everything you need to know to achieve outstanding results. Even a quick flip through one of my beginner books will provide enough information for years of progress. The problem is, there is a bit of joy in thinking you are not privy to the truth, that a lack of information is what's holding you back. If only you knew about the secret supplement, exercise, or "advanced" training technique. The abundance of information available today plays into this. There are always new podcasts, articles, videos, etc. to check out. It's easy to have fitness FOMO. Look, I love that there is so much fitness information available today. I wish I had access to it when I started. But, the point to remember is, nothing replaces the work. The content most of us should be chasing is how to develop good habits, master the fundamentals, and consistently work hard. If you do that, the results will speak for themselves. Dave Draper has an awesome quote in his book Brother Iron Sister Steel, "The simple and commonplace, due to their ordinary nature, are almost always reduced in importance and misplaced." Brother Iron, Sister Steel is what we are going to talk about today. In chapter two of the book, he lays out the following six keys. He actually called it the six keys to bodybuilding success, but bodybuilding in a more general sense. All of these tips apply to fitness as a whole. Sit back, relax, and enjoy!

Thoughts on usefulness and implementation? What is the best and most challenging moment in your fitness journey so far? When does it become important to add in assistance exercises like front squat or close grip bench press? Is it as important to be in a caloric surplus for strength gains as it is for muscle growth? What are your thoughts on fitness trackers? I have been thinking about getting a Whoop Strap. A question about CrossFit – Since there is a lot to balance, conditioning, gymnastics, Olympic lifting, and strength training, how would you recommend breaking up your sessions?

In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Sebastian Gonzales to talk about what to do if you experience back pain from lifting weights.

In this episode, I talk about Myo Reps and the book titled "Myo Reps The Secret Norwegian Method to Build Muscle in 70% Less Time" by Borge Fagerli. The book is a free pdf download you can get here: https://borgefagerli.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/Myo-reps-E-book.pdf From Borge, "Myo-reps is, simplistically speaking, a rest-pause method and the most famous permutation of it is DC/Doggcrapp training. Most of you probably know how to perform a rest-pause set, and I didn't just reinvent the wheel here, I refined it building on research on hypertrophy in recent years." Here is how I set up Myo Reps: 1 set x 12-25 reps @9-10 RPE [Activation Set] Rest 3-5 big breaths between sets [5-15 seconds] 3-5 sets x 3-5 reps or 25-50% of Activation Set [Myo Reps] Myo Reps are best done with assistance movements. My favorites are push-ups, pull-ups, dips, dumbbell bench press, barbell curls, dumbbell side raises, etc. I recommend doing 1-2 exercises with Myo Reps in a workout.
