Wondering how heavy you should lift to actually build muscle? In this episode, we break down exactly how to know if your strength training is effective—and how to build muscle as a beginner without second-guessing your effort. You'll Learn: Why muscle growth comes from challenging your body to adapt What “heavy enough” really means for you (hint: it's different for every woman) How to use the RPE scale to measure training intensity Why keeping 2–3 reps “in the tank” is the sweet spot for muscle growth If you're not seeing results, chances are you're not lifting heavy enough for you. Let's fix that. Ready to train smarter?

Today we're diving into protein. It's the nutrient at the centre of some of the biggest debates in nutrition - especially when it comes to building muscle. And as more people adopt plant-based diets, one question keeps coming up: Can non-meat proteins really support strength and overall health? So, what does the science say? Is it better to get our protein from animals or plants? I'm joined by nutrition expert Simon Hill and Dr. Will Bulsiewicz to break down the benefits of both, and to explore how we can build muscle in the healthiest, most sustainable way.

How long does it really take to build muscle?And is there such a thing as a quick fix when it comes to exercise and getting healthier?Should you really be pushing yourself in the gym to do more reps, or is it a case of just extending your evening stroll?Joining guest host Tom Dunne to discuss is Fiona Skelly, Lecturer in Physical Activity and Health.

I'm excited to share my conversation with Stuart Phillips, where we dive deep into muscle building science - a topic that generates endless debate on social media. As someone who struggles with gaining muscle despite consistent training, I was shocked when Dr. Christopher Gardner told me muscle growth is "10% nutrition and 90% exercise." This contradicted everything I thought I knew, so I had to bring in Stu - widely considered the foremost expert on muscle development - to separate fact from fiction. The most fascinating insight for me was discovering that effective muscle building can happen across a wide range of repetition schemes - from as low as 3 reps to as high as 25 reps per set. This challenges the rigid "strength/hypertrophy/endurance" continuum that's dominated fitness advice for decades.

Is it really possible to lose fat and build muscle at the same time—or is that just wishful thinking? In this episode, I break down the science behind body recomposition and what it actually takes to improve your body composition without having to pick between fat loss or muscle gain. Spoiler: yes, it's possible—but only if you're optimizing the right things. I walk you through exactly how to do it, including the biggest training mistakes people make (and how to fix them), how to adjust your calories depending on your main goal, why protein and carbs matter more than you think, and how things like sleep, stress, and even alcohol can make or break your progress. If you've been spinning your wheels trying to get leaner and stronger but feel stuck in the middle, this episode will give you the clarity you need.

Submit a question for the podcast (and get a personal reply plus a shoutout) at witsandweights.com/question--Ever feel like your strength training goals are slipping away because of nagging injuries or mobility limitations? That persistent shoulder pain during pressing, the foot injury that flares up when walking, or those mobility restrictions that make certain movements feel impossible can be incredibly frustrating. But what if these challenges aren't roadblocks but redirections?Today we're answering listener Tom's question about training with shoulder pain, foot issues, and mobility limitations. The truth is, everyone who lifts weights long enough will encounter physical limitations. The difference between those who continue making progress and those who stagnate isn't about genetic luck or perfect health—it's about mastering the art of training around limitations.Learn the powerful mindset principles that allow you to continue building muscle and strength despite injuries or limitations, and why the most successful lifters aren't those with perfect bodies, but those who master the art of training around their constraints.Main Takeaways:Why "adaptation, not abandonment" should be your fundamental training principleHow constraints can actually accelerate your progress by forcing smarter trainingThe expanded definition of progression beyond just adding weightWhy compensatory patterns matter and how to become aware of themThe importance of redefining what "progress" means when working around limitationsTimestamps:0:01 - The challenge of training with limitations 2:16 - Why this affects lifters of all ages and experience levels 4:34 - The adaptation mindset vs abandonment 6:30 - Constraint as a catalyst for better training 10:13 - The primacy of progression principle 12:52 - Holistic adaptation management 15:39 - Compensatory awareness 17:06 - Deliberate variability in exercise selection 22:49 - Redefining progress beyond PRs 27:26 - Why limitations are redirections, not roadblocksSubmit a question for the podcast (and get a personal reply plus a shoutout) at witsandweights.com/questionSupport the show

Unsure whether to focus on fat loss, muscle building, or maintenance?In this episode, I share a real live recording of a 15-minute Rapid Nutrition Assessment with Sam, who wasn't sure which direction to take her fitness journey next despite already establishing solid nutrition and training habits.Sam has made impressive progress with her nutrition and training habits but struggles with competing goals: wanting to build muscle and improve bone density while maintaining the lean physique she worked hard to achieve. Having previously reached 14% body fat, she loved how she looked and felt, but found this difficult to maintain long-term. Now at 18%, she's hesitant about entering a building phase that might push her away from her aesthetic comfort zone.You'll discover why the choice between building muscle and staying lean doesn't have to be binary, and how finding the right balance can transform both your physique and long-term health.Main Takeaways:Why "aggressive maintenance" might be the perfect approach for building muscle without sacrificing leannessHow to increase training intensity to improve bone density and muscle growthThe importance of strength-focused training versus hypertrophy for overall health outcomesWhy adding just 50-100 calories can make a significant difference in your body's ability to build muscleTimestamps: 0:01 - Why you might be torn between competing fitness goals  4:11 - Bone density, muscle building, and training intensity  12:04 - Choosing between maintenance, fat loss, or muscle gain 15:44 - Why small calorie increases help with building muscle19:44 - What is true maintenance? 21:51 - Improving bone density Support the show

Today, we're going to talk about the best supplements to build muscle fast! Don't bother taking single amino acids for muscle growth! Double-blinded studies have shown this isn't an effective way to build muscle or increase muscle growth. Amino acids can also turn into sugar, which can increase your blood sugar.Avoid tribulus and fenugreek if you are building muscle. These compounds can increase testosterone, but not enough to build muscle.As we age, testosterone decreases and cortisol increases. This combination can hinder muscle building. Overtraining can also significantly increase cortisol and shut down testosterone. Cholesterol is vital for essential hormones like testosterone, so avoid low-cholesterol and low-fat diets if you want to build muscle. Insulin resistance can hinder muscle growth. Insulin resistance is often caused by frequent eating and high-carbohydrate diets. Sleep is vital for muscle building because most muscle growth occurs while sleeping! Magnesium glycinate can help you sleep and also helps make energy to feed your muscles.Try these top 3 muscle-building supplements to boost muscle growth and increase muscle size.1. Creatine monohydrateCreatine is found naturally in red meat. It increases ATP, performance, energy during workouts, and hydration, and directly increases muscle stimulus. 2. Whey proteinWhey protein powder provides leucine, which stimulates muscle growth. It also contains the other amino acids vital for muscle building. 3. ZincZinc helps increase testosterone, and even a mild zinc deficiency can decrease testosterone production. Testosterone is vital for building muscle size and strength. If you want to build muscle, consume grass-fed red meat. It contains creatine, amino acids, zinc, vitamin B12, and carnosine. It also contains healthy fat and cholesterol to help boost testosterone. Eggs and fish also support muscle-building.

In this episode of The Absolute Strength Podcast, Derek and I explore how strategically adding cardio and increasing your daily activity can actually improve muscle growth rather than hinder it.
