Podcasts about muscle gain

Today we're doing a chatty update on my muscle gain phase! Talking about rate of gain (and comparing this to people who think they might put on 3kg's every time they eat out

We are absolutely spiraling today after Clint confessed to making a brutal 90-minute U-turn back to a holiday batch just to fish a rogue poo out of a broken toilet using a kitchen spatula. Plus, we're naming the mean little critic living inside Dan's head. You are not ready for this chaos.

I have been a fitness coach for 8 years and I'm here to teach you what it takes to finally lose that weight and be the best version of yourself. So if you want to  to lose weight and get your abs showing for the first time  then DM the words “abs” on instagram @kevinwuwu_ and we'll have a chat whether  or not I can help you lose that weight to get your abs for the first time

Welcome to the Mind Muscle Connection Podcast!In today's episode, I talk about the ongoing conversation around body recomposition, bulking, and cutting. Lately, more people have been saying that bulking and cutting is dead, so in this episode I break down what I agree with, where I think people get it wrong, and why context matters when trying to improve your physique. I explain why most people do not need aggressive bulks or cuts to see progress, how fat loss and muscle gain can happen at the same time, why your daily habits matter more than obsessing over exact calorie numbers, and why most people still benefit from different nutrition phases over time.I also go into how body fat levels, training quality, recovery, stress management, and long-term consistency all impact your ability to build muscle while losing fat.If you've been confused by the whole recomp conversation, feel stuck between deciding whether to bulk or cut, or just want a more realistic and sustainable approach to improving your body composition, this episode will help clear things up.Let's talk about:Bulking, Cutting & Recomping ExplainedDifferent Types of Body RecompositionCan You Lose Fat At Maintenance?“Bulking & Cutting Is Dead” DiscussionImproving Inputs Instead of Obsessing Over CaloriesWhy Different Phases Still MatterFat Loss and Muscle Gain at the Same TimeDeficit Size and Muscle Growth Trade-OffsSmall Surpluses and Muscle Growth PotentialWhy Recomping Does Not Last ForeverWhy Nutrition Phases Still MatterPersonal Example of Maintenance and FlexibilityBody Fat Percentage and Goal Considerations The Downside of Staying the Same Weight ForeverFlexible Fat Loss Strategies for ClientsWhy Biofeedback and Inputs Matter MostStop Overfocusing on Calorie NumbersProtein Intake and Muscle GrowthManaging Calories Without PerfectionMeal Timing, Sleep, and Appetite RegulationStress Load Management and Body CompositionFinal Thoughts on Bulking, Cutting, and RecompingFollow me on Instagram for more information and education:https://www.instagram.com/jeffhoehn_/?hl=enHow You Can Work With Me?: https://jhhealth.net/workwithme/Coaching application: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfE-99wLDZRXlOOY1pWuAmkogdZOm-7ZvN_thbqNWLdNrj5bg/viewformBody Recomp Checklist 2.0: https://chipper-producer-6244.kit.com/26b5c9f94a

On this week's episode of Bikinis After Babies, we are coming to you with some of our insight into competition prep from our perspective both as coaches and competitors ourselves! One subject that often comes up is the process of changing body composition and the argument that fat loss is harder than muscle gain…or vice versa.   In this episode we dive deep into this debate and discuss the following key points:Is the challenge physical or psychological?Is “weight loss” being confused with actual fat loss?Are women underestimating how long muscle building truly takes?Does social media distort expectations for both?Is maintenance actually the hardest phase of all?Many of our clients are starting prep and the countdown is both thrilling and nerve-wracking! Every check-in is a reminder of how much work lies ahead.  We hope the concepts and strategies discussed in this episode help motivate and inspire you, wherever you're at on your fitness journey, to put in the work, day in and day out…..the work is WORTH IT! We hope that you enjoyed this episode and if so, we would LOVE it if you would rate, subscribe, and leave us reviews on how this podcast has helped you

In this month's Q&A episode of the Chasing Clarity Health & Fitness Podcast, I'm joined once again by Jeff Hoehn for Episode 4 of our monthly series.Each month, we answer your questions and break down the strategies that actually move the needle when it comes to improving your physique, your performance, and your overall health.This episode is focused on the principles that separate trainees who see real change from those who train hard for years and never look any different.Because cardio doesn't kill your gains the way the internet says it does.Most diets don't fail because of metabolism, they fail because of execution.And switching your training program every few weeks is one of the biggest reasons your physique looks the same year over year. It's about understanding the physiology underneath these decisions, applying the right protocols at the right time, and giving your body the consistency it needs to actually change.HERE'S WHAT WE COVER:DOES CARDIO AFTER LIFTING PREVENT MUSCLE GROWTH & HOW TO PROGRAM IT THE RIGHT WAYTHE MOST COMMON DIETING MISTAKES THAT KEEP PEOPLE FROM ACHIEVING A LEAN PHYSIQUEHOW TO MAINTAIN MUSCLE WHEN LIFE GETS HECTIC & TRAINING VOLUME HAS TO DROPWHY SWITCHING YOUR TRAINING PROGRAM EVERY 4-6 WEEKS IS HOLDING YOU BACKA BELIEF WE'VE CHANGED OUR MINDS ON IN THE LAST FEW YEARSAs always, this conversation blends physiology, research, and real-world coaching application so you can better understand what actually drives sustainable results.If you found this episode helpful, share it with someone who needs to hear it.WHERE TO CONNECT WITH ME:Follow Brandon on IG: https://www.instagram.com/brandondacruz_/Email: Bdacruzfitness@gmail.comFor Info on Brandon's Coaching Services: https://form.jotform.com/bdacruzfitness/coachinginquiryMy Reading Recommendations: THE MUSCLE & STRENGTH PYRAMIDS https://getdpd.com/cart/hoplink/25469?referrer=1l54og96lf1ccw

She specializes in helping busy moms simplify the fat loss process and finally make it sustainable.She's NOT about extremes, quick fixes, or starting over every Monday. Instead, she teaches women how to master the basics: building strength, understanding nutrition, and creating habits that actually fit into their lives.We discussed the importance of nutritional phases, training for muscle gain, building out a home gym, sticking to your plan when you don't feel like it, and more.You can connect with Carmie here: https://www.instagram.com/carmhawk_getsfit/Carmie and Dal Sekhon's (our S2 E23 guest) Break the Cycle podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/breaking-the-cycle-redefining-weight-loss-health-mom-life/id1833516078Don't hesitate to ask me questions on anything we covered here: mail@samforget.comFor more support and accountability, apply for coaching here: https://samforget.com/coaching/Or get started for free with my one-stop nutrition guide: https://freenutritionguide.com

In episode 871 of the Savage Perspective Podcast, host Robert Sikes sits down with coach Martin Silva to reveal why building muscle is the true secret to sustainable fat loss and metabolic health. They discuss how to break the cycle of binge eating, why your leanest body isn't your healthiest, and how to build a resilient mindset that guarantees long-term success.

If you feel like you're training hard, eating well. and still not getting leaner... this eipisode covers it a;;do you truly know what your body needs if you want body recomposition, better muscle tone, and a body that changes for real?In this one, I'm breaking down why so many women stay stuck in the cycle of trying harder, cutting calories again, chasing fat loss, and still not seeing the definition, shape, or body recomposition they actually want.Because the truth is, you're probably not failing from lack of discipline.You're focusing on the wrong things.We get into:why fat loss and muscle building are not the same jobwhy maintenance is often the phase women need mostwhy low calories can keep you stuck in a half-dieted, half-built middlewhy training quality, progression, and performance matter more than “burning more”why feeling fluffy is not the same thing as getting fathow carbs, recovery, and better fuelling actually support the physique you wantwhy the scale is a terrible main metric for body recompositionwhen it actually makes sense to diet — and when it doesn'tIf you've been stuck in the loop of:“I feel like I'm doing everything right”“I don't know why I can't stay consistent”“I just want to lean out, but my body isn't changing”“I'm scared to eat more because I don't want to gain weight”…this episode will help you understand what's really going on.This is for women who want to build muscle, improve body composition, feel stronger in the gym, stop obsessing over the scale, and finally get out of the chronic dieting cycle.If this hits, send it to a friend who's sick of feeling like she has to eat less and do more forever.

This is Conversation four inside The Relationship Era on The Warrior School Podcast — and today we're talking about why your bod doesn't look or feel the way you want her to… and what actually creates muscle, fat loss, strength, energy, and confidence. Because here's the truth: You don't get to decide the adaptation. Your bod does. And she only adapts when the prerequisites are met. Most of you want the same things. More muscle. Less fat. A lean, strong body. Energy. Confidence. Capability. And you're training. You're fuelling. You're trying.  But here's what I need you to understand: Fat loss isn't a goal. Muscle gain isn't a goal. Strength isn't a goal. They're adaptations. And adaptations respond to context — not desire. You don't get to force your body to change. She changes when the signal makes sense. In this episode, I break down the three systems that drive adaptation — your nervous system, your metabolic system, and your mechanical system — and how to identify which one is limiting you right now. Because instead of asking, “Why isn't my body changing?” I want you to ask: “What adaptation am I asking for — and have I met the prerequisites to get it?” In This Episode, You'll Learn: Why effort does not override biology What an adaptation really is (and why you can't force it) The 3 systems that drive body recomposition: Nervous system (safety & stress) Metabolic system (energy & fuel) Mechanical system (movement & load) How to identify your primary limiting system Why assessment must come before strategy Powerful Quotes From This Episode "Fat loss isn't a goal. It's an adaptation.” “You don't get to decide the adaptation. Your body does.” “Adaptations respond to context — not desire.” “Effort will not override biology.” “Instead of asking why your body isn't changing, ask what adaptation you're asking for — and whether you've met the prerequisites.”

Fat loss and muscle gain are often framed as simple equations — eat the right amount, train hard, stay consistent. And while those factors absolutely matter, they aren't the whole story. Your internal physiology plays a major role in how your body utilizes energy, recovers from training, and responds to nutrition.In this episode, we explore a factor that is frequently overlooked in conversations about body composition: digestive health.Chronic gut dysfunction doesn't just cause uncomfortable symptoms like bloating, reflux, gas, or irregular digestion. It can also create ongoing low-grade inflammation and stress signaling within the body. Over time, this can affect cortisol regulation, blood sugar control, recovery, and how efficiently your body uses energy.When these systems become dysregulated, fat loss and muscle gain can become significantly harder — not because you're doing something wrong, but because your body is adapting to a chronically stressed internal environment.This episode walks through how gut dysfunction can trigger a cascade of physiological effects that influence metabolism, recovery, hormone signaling, and body composition. More importantly, it helps you understand how to identify these patterns and where to start if digestive stress may be contributing to a plateau.The goal isn't to make body composition feel more complicated — it's to provide clarity so you can approach your health and fitness goals more strategically instead of simply pushing harder.In this episode, we cover:• Why chronic gut dysfunction acts as a persistent stress signal in the body• How inflammation from digestive distress influences cortisol regulation• The connection between chronic stress signaling, blood sugar regulation, and insulin resistance• Why impaired glucose control can slow energy expenditure and lower daily calorie burn• How chronic stress and sympathetic activation affect digestion and nutrient absorption• The role digestion plays in hormone balance, including thyroid and sex hormones• Why gut dysfunction can interfere with muscle recovery and growth• How digestive stress can impact sleep quality and recovery from training• Signs your digestion may be contributing to stalled fat loss or muscle gain• Foundational strategies that help restore digestive stability and reduce chronic gut stressIf you've been feeling stuck in your body composition goals despite putting in consistent effort, this episode will help you better understand what might be happening beneath the surface — and why supporting your digestive system may be an important first step.Connect With Coach DianaInstagram, YouTube, TikTok: @coachdianaleighEmail: coachdianaleigh@gmail.com

DESCRIPTIONIn this episode of the Fit 40 Podcast, I break down why my client Amy gained 15 pounds over the past couple months — and why it's actually a huge win for her health, strength, and metabolism. We talk about why weight gain isn't always fat gain, how muscle, water retention, glycogen, and inflammation all affect the scale, and why women in perimenopause and menopause need better markers than just body weight. If you've ever stepped on the scale after a busy or indulgent season and felt defeated, this episode will help you understand what's really happening in your body and how to keep your head on straight so you can stay consistent and confident long term.FIT40 LINKS✅ Feeling low on energy and out of shape but short on time?

Welcome to the Mind Muscle Connection Podcast!In this solo episode, I talk about “Ignoring These Signs? You Could Be Making Fat Loss/Muscle Gain Tougher” This one's especially important if you're in your 30s or beyond and feel like you're doing everything right but still not seeing the results you want.I walk through the most common symptoms I see with client slow energy, brain fog, poor recovery, irregular hunger and cravings, low libido, menstrual cycle changes, and more and explain what they're really signaling. Most of the time, it's not just one issue. It's usually a mix of training stress, lifestyle habits, and poor nutrition working against you. I also share what to track and how to use these biofeedback cues to stop spinning your wheels and start progressing again.If you've been training consistently, tracking your food, but progress still feels like a grind, this episode will give you the clarity you've been missing!Let's talk about:00:47 Introduction01:30 Ignoring body signals04:09 Root causes of poor recovery or stalled progress07:06 Common symptoms23:13 Final takeawaysFollow me on Instagram for more information and education:  jeffhoehn_FREE 30 Min Strategy Call: HEREBody Recomp Masterclass: HERENutrition Periodization Masterclass: HEREHow You Can Work With Me?: HERECoaching application: HEREBody Recomp Checklist 2.0: https://chipper-producer-6244.kit.com/26b5c9f94a

They also share real talk on things like long fasting, hormone replacement, and how to lose fat without losing strength.This episode is full of advice anyone can understand and use — even if you're just starting out.Join the Masterclass on 1/6/26: https://conquerfitnessandnutrition.com/masterclass Chapters(00:00) Avoiding New Year Burnout: Slow Down to Stay Consistent(01:55) How Motivation Can Backfire & One Simple Habit to Build Trust(06:14) The Default Habit That Keeps You Going All Year(07:10) How Long Does It Take to Build Muscle in Women Over 60?(09:27) Can You Keep Muscle While Losing Fat in a Calorie Deficit?(13:13) Does Hormone Replacement Turn Back the Clock for Muscle Gain?(16:41) How to Prevent Muscle Loss After Menopause(20:26) Is Body Fat Related to Water Weight?(22:13) Is Fasting 24-72 Hours Worth It for Cell Health or Clarity?SUBMIT YOUR QUESTIONS to be answered on the show: https://forms.gle/B6bpTBDYnDcbUkeD7How to Connect with Us:Chase's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/changing_chase/Chris' Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/conquer_fitness2021/Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/665770984678334/Interested in 1:1 Coaching: https://conquerfitnessandnutrition.com/1on1-coachingJoin The Fit Fam Collective: https://conquerfitnessandnutrition.com/fit-fam-collective

One of the most popular goals this time of year is to lose some (or a lot) of fat. But how do you go about that, and is it a good idea (like so many people do) to put off the strength training until after you've lost your fat? If you're looking to make healthy changes to your lifestyle this year, this is the episode for you. We cover the basics of losing fat and building muscle mass, and explain why it's better to focus on both goals simultaneously. Here are three helpful guides from our website: Strength Training for Beginners: The Ultimate Guide How to Cut: Lose Fat and Keep Your Muscle Mass How to Build Muscle: Sets, Reps & Exercises *** Do you like what you hear so far?

reatine is one of the most researched supplements out there—but most women still aren't taking it. Why? Usually it's fear of weight gain, bloating, or just not understanding what it actually does. We'll cover the science in simple terms, the real benefits you can expect, how to take it, and whether it's actually safe. If you've been curious about creatine but weren't sure if it was right for you, this episode will give you everything you need to make an informed decision. Enjoy! -Rachel Creatine from my Thorne Dispensary More resources:  https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC12053822/ https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC7998865/

In this episode of Ageless Future, Cade Archibald dives deep into the growing world of GLP-1 peptides—like Semaglutide (Ozempic), Tirzepatide, and the newest, Retatrutide. He breaks down the science, benefits, and potential risks of these game-changing therapies for weight loss, blood sugar control, and metabolic health. Cade exposes common mistakes that lead to side effects such as muscle loss and GI issues, emphasizing the critical role of proper dosing, receptor resets, and stacking with supportive peptides. Most importantly, he outlines how combining these peptides with smart nutrition, strength training, and personalized care can create lasting, transformative results—avoiding the pitfalls of mainstream misuse and fad weight-loss hype. LIKE/FOLLOW/SUBSCRIBE AGELESS FUTURE:YouTube -https://www.youtube.com/@ReganArchibald / https://www.youtube.com/@Ageless.FutureLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/regan-archibald-ab70b813Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ageless.future/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/AgelessFutureHealth/

Full Show Notes: https://bengreenfieldlife.com/494 In this episode, I dig into the fascinating story of the world’s oldest woman—a vibrant supercentenarian from Spain who made it to 117 years old. I break down what researchers discovered about her genes, lifestyle, and daily habits (you might be surprised by some of the things she ate and didn’t do!). I also get nerdy about the newest longevity drugs and supplements—like curcumin, spermidine, taurine, and a few others you might not expect—and explain which ones actually work, according to the science in mammals. Plus, I share some updates from my own life, like the weirdly exciting health setting I just found on my new iPhone, and spill the beans on why I microdose alcohol (and sometimes other things) instead of going on a bender. If you’re curious about muscle gain (do you really need to be in a calorie surplus?), soft-shell vs hardshell hyperbaric chambers, or how certain supplements might actually help you live longer, you’re in the right place. There’s a lot of info coming your way, and I’ve tried to translate all the geeky science into practical tips for you to use.

In this podcast, I kick things off by sharing a behind-the-scenes highlight from my recent trip to Washington, DC, where I attended the Make America Healthy Again Commission report presentation at the White House. This experience was powerful, but also sobering, as the report shone a harsh light on the health crisis among our nation's youth—more than 40% of children have at least one chronic illness, and a staggering 70% of their daily calories come from ultra-processed foods. I discuss not just the causes of these issues, like environmental toxicity, digital addiction, and over-medicalization, but also my thoughts on where real change can and should occur. By the end of this episode, you’ll have a clear blueprint for dialing in your nutrition, optimizing your training recovery, and using smart timing to boost your energy, fat loss results, and longevity.
