In this episode of CTC Jeff & Andy discuss: - Vacation Planning for Health & Wellness, how we think about working out (or not) and staying active while we take a break. - Hypertrophy vs. Strength and how the Build Program creates priorities for health and longevity as it's focus. - Busting Plateaus and finding your low hanging fruit so you can mentally & physically move forward. - Lastly we discuss Mobility & Stretching!

In this episode, the hosts discuss various aspects of bodybuilding prep, including caloric intake, metabolic adaptation, and the impact of extreme dieting. They explore historical studies that provide insights into these phenomena and discuss practical strategies for weight loss. The conversation transitions to powerlifting, specifically the recent IPF Worlds, highlighting the competitive dynamics and standout performances in the event. In this conversation, Eric Helms highlights impressive performances and battles in various weight classes. He emphasizes the growth of the sport and the challenges faced by lifters, particularly in extreme conditions. The subsequent Q&A covers the balance between powerlifting and bodybuilding, exercise order for hypertrophy, and the relationship between energy balance and recovery. Additionally, the practicality and effectiveness of using weighted vests for exercise are examined, providing insights into their potential benefits and drawbacks.   Time stamps: 00:00 Introduction and Helms' Updates on Bodybuilding Prep 01:50 Caloric Intake and Metabolic Adaptation 05:35 Extreme Cases of Metabolic Adaptation: Insights from Historical Studies 25:26 IPF Worlds Recap 44:44 Programming for Powerlifting and Bodybuilding (Simultaneously) 48:26 Exercise Order and Hypertrophy 01:00:23 Energy Balance and Recovery 01:05:44 The Pros and Cons of Weighted Vests

“The morning, up until around lunch, is the best time of day to eat most of our calories. And in fact, there's been really great research. Even if you don't change the timing of your meals, if you make breakfast and lunch the largest meals of the day and dinner the smallest meal of the day, you lose more weight. And not only do you lose more weight, you're actually less hungry.” -Dr. Courtney Peterson  “Talk about these time intervals. Why is 14 a magic number?” -Jason Wrobel  “Typically, it takes the body about 12 to 14 hours to burn through a lot of its glycogen stores. Initially after a meal, your body's gonna be burning a lot of carbohydrates—so, glucose. It's gonna burn through a lot of the actual food in the meal, then it'll store some, burn others.” -Dr. Courtney Peterson  “Are there any scientifically reported benefits for hormone health, or managing cancer, with TRE?” -Jason Wrobel  “The area of cancer is super fascinating. Valter Longo does a lot of work in both the realms of aging and longevity, and cancer. Many years ago, he and some collaborators discovered if you fast cells or animals with cancer prior to treating the cancer with chemotherapy and radiation, you could kill tumors far more effectively.” -Dr. Courtney Peterson What if the timing of your meals mattered just as much as the food on your plate? In this episode, we're diving into the fascinating science of time-restricted eating with Dr. Courtney Peterson—one of the world's leading researchers on how aligning our meals with the body's internal clock can transform our health. A Harvard-trained scientist and Associate Professor of Nutrition Sciences at the University of Alabama at Birmingham, Dr. Peterson was the first to test early time-restricted eating in humans, and her groundbreaking work is redefining how we think about metabolism, energy, and chronic disease. If you've ever wondered if nourishment runs deeper than nutrients—that your body might be seeking harmony—then this episode will strike a chord. What we discuss in this episode: Different types of intermittent fasting: how they compare, and what benefits they offer. The science behind time-restricted eating (TRE). How TRE supports weight loss and appetite regulation. Fasting, aging, and the process of autophagy. The best time of day to consume the majority of your calories. How meal timing can influence fertility and reproductive health in women. Grazing vs. structured mealtimes: what the science shows. The intersection of cancer treatment and fasting: what emerging research reveals. Hypertrophy and intermittent fasting. How fasting influences exercise performance. Dr. Peterson's personal approach to intermittent fasting.

Research shows you can build muscle with or without the pump, and incorporating both heavy lifting and pump-focused training can maximize results. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://muscleevo.net/pump-muscle/ Quotes to ponder: "A pump is the fix and rush of bodybuilding. It is the workout gone inside: the exercise swallowed and digested, metabolizing visibly into growth." "It is likely that exercise centered on achieving a 'pump' through higher repetition sets combined with shorter rest periods also provides a potent hypertrophic stimulus that is synergistic to heavy compound lifting."

In this episode of the Supporting Champions Podcast, I'm delighted to welcome Dr. Richard Ferguson to the show. Richard is one of the leading figures in exercise physiology, and today we're diving deep into the fascinating world of blood flow restriction (BFR) training. We explore the science behind BFR, how restricting blood flow can stimulate remarkable strength and endurance adaptations, even with lighter loads. Richard shares his insights into BFR's role in rehabilitation, athletic performance, and recovery, helping us understand both the opportunities and the caveats of applying this method. From the mechanisms driving hypertrophy and mitochondrial development, to the mental challenges BFR presents athletes, Richard brings a wealth of research, experience, and practical advice. If you're curious about enhancing adaptation, optimising recovery, or just exploring cutting-edge sports science, this conversation is packed full of insight.

Welcome to episode 152 of the Bodybuilding Down Under podcast! This week, we turn our attention to back hypertrophy, breaking down what it really takes to build width, thickness, and detail across every region of the back. Whether you're trying to unlock the secret to wider lats, build a denser middle back, or figure out if shrugs are worth your time, this episode is packed with practical insights. Here's what we cover in today's episode:

Sara might not know how to say hypertrophy (seriously, someone help her out), but she definitely knows how to train for it. This week, we're breaking down what hypertrophy actually is (spoiler: it's muscle growth, not a trophy for being hyper), how to train for it, and why you won't accidentally wake up looking like a bodybuilder.Caleigh, on the other hand, is just here to ask the real questions—like, do we actually get a trophy for this? Along the way, we're talking about how many sets and reps you really need for muscle growth, why lifting heavy won't make you bulky, and why protein matters more than you think. And, of course, there's a little bit of chaos (because when is there not?).Hit play and let's get into it!Connect with us on social media!Instagram | TikTok | Threads | Youtube | Facebook | X (Twitter) | WebsiteThis podcast offers health, fitness, and nutritional information and is designed for educational and entertainment purposes only.

This week on The Price for Paradise, we're back with my good friend Alec Santoyo, for Hypertrophy Round 2 In this episode, we dive deeper into the mindset and science behind building muscle. Join us as we explore: • The art and science of creating optimal tension for hypertrophy. • Finding your sweet spot: How many sets are truly optimal? • A quick note on junk volume and how to avoid it. • Advanced programming techniques designed specifically for muscle gain. Tune in for an informative and immersive conversation that feels like you're right here with us, sharing insights and actionable advice for maximizing your gains.

In this episode, Ashleigh and Rachel answer questions about fasted cardio and their thoughts on male coaches who focus on female clients looking to grow their glutes (there are a lot of them!)  Is there evidence that fasted cardio first thing in the morning burns more fat than fed cardio? What's the balance with cardio that optimizes fat loss without adding negatively to your overall stress load, increasing hunger, etc? And the ladies do their best to convince listeners that more/harder cardio is NOT necessarily a faster and more effective way to burn fat.

They talk about training differences and approaches to make sure you get the most out of your workouts.

In this engaging conversation, Dr. John Jaquish discusses the evolution of his fitness philosophy, focusing on the X3 variable resistance training system. He critiques traditional weightlifting methods, emphasizing their ineffectiveness for most individuals. The discussion also covers partnerships with Westside Barbell, dietary changes, and the science behind muscle growth and cholesterol. Dr. Jaquish shares insights on the future of testosterone treatments and the importance of adapting fitness and nutrition strategies to individual needs.Takeaways✅ X3 is the world's most powerful variable resistance training system.✅ 90% of individuals quit strength training within 90 days due to lack of results.✅ Variable resistance training accommodates genetic differences in muscle engagement.✅ A hypertrophy program can yield the same muscle growth in significantly less time than traditional methods.✅ LDL cholesterol levels may not be as harmful as traditionally thought.Chapters00:00 Introduction to Dr. John J Quish and X302:54 Understanding Variable Resistance Training05:57 The Limitations of Traditional Weightlifting08:59 Partnerships and Innovations in X311:51 The Conjugate Method and Programming Flexibility14:52 Hypertrophy and Efficiency in Training18:08 The Evolution of X3 and New Developments21:04 The Science Behind Muscle Growth and Fatigue24:04 The X3 Force Bar and Its Benefits27:06 Diet Changes and Future Directions28:22 Exploring New Research in Muscle Growth33:19 Diet Evolution: From Keto to Carnivore39:10 The Science of Fasting and Protein Intake43:03 Cholesterol Controversies and Health Perspectives47:33 Future of Testosterone Therapy

Joe kicks off this week's show by sharing aspects of his "rough week" with the audience. Once he's done venting, he begins his training talk :) During the 1st half of the show he shares an online interaction he recently had with an ignorant "science-based" lifter... This discussion is centered around "stretch mediated hypertrophy" and Joe's biggest pet peeve with the current "lengthened training" obsession. The 2nd half of the show is dedicated to balance training. Joe reveals the SECRET to improving balance in the "real world" as well as the most overrated balance training techniques! *For a full list of Show Notes + Timestamps visit www.IndustrialStrengthShow.com.
