The 10 Most Overrated Exercises For Muscle Growth Jul 26, 2024

Show notes

One of the best aspects of training for muscle growth is the freedom of choice. There's no exercise that you must do. You can build your legs without back squatting, your chest without benching, and your lats without lat pulldowns or pullups. However, these are all excellent exercises, and if you can do them, you should.

However, not all exercises are great. In fact, there are a bunch of lousy ones. Today, we are going to discuss the 10 most overrated exercises for muscle growth and why they may not be as effective as commonly believed. Sit back, relax, and enjoy!

8 Reasons You Look Like You Don't Lift Jul 17, 2024

Show notes

It's a question that often lingers in the air at the gym-why am I not seeing better results? We all know the primary reason we train is to look super jacked. Yet, despite the countless hours we spend in the gym and our meticulous attention to our nutrition, we often fall short of our desired physique. This lack of progress can even lead to one of the most dreaded questions a man can get—Do you even lift, bro?

Here are five daily habits to improve your fitness and life. Sit back, relax, and Enjoy!

Lengthened Partials, Training for Muscle and Strength, and More Jun 28, 2024

Show notes

In this episode, Derek and I answer questions from listeners. Sit back, relax, and enjoy!

Questions on the show:

As you guys have mentioned on the pod recently, lengthened partials are all everyone seems to be talking about right now. How would you recommend implementing them into a program?
Hey guys! I started powerlifting about a year and a half ago and found the podcast right around then. I've learned a lot! Anyway, I have a question. How do I balance the need for hypertrophy with maintaining optimal strength in the big three lifts? For context, I'm 20 years old, 6'0, and 172 pounds.
I'm really interested in fully auto-regulation training programs, where you have no set training days and essentially move days around based on how you're feeling. I've been experimenting with this lately and would love to hear your thoughts.
Hi Kyle, I have a random question for you. What are the main differences in programming for natural athletes versus those using performance-enhancing drugs?
Have you guys found the perfect lifting shoe yet lol?
