Fitness Program (32 days left- LAW #5 Muscle Growth & Consistency). I talk about my own journey of times when I was most or least consistent, what I noticed with depression and insomnia in those times, and what I noticed about my energy, focus, and mood as well as just general intellectual abilities. How I am doing with tracking meals, eating healthier ingredients, deciding about which fitness routines to use for caloric deficits versus caloric surpluses.

If I could go back and start my fitness journey all over again? I'd do a lot less spinning my wheels, and a lot more of what actually works.In this Q&A episode, I'm breaking down exactly what I'd do differently if I were starting from scratch today. No fake motivation. No shiny routines. Just the five shifts that would've saved me years of burnout, frustration, and wasted energy.We're talking about why lifting weights (intentionally, not endlessly) would be my day one move, why soreness and sweat mean less than you think, and how protein and walking changed everything for me, but not in the way Instagram makes it seem.I'm also getting into the habits I used to skip that now feel non-negotiable and why I wish I'd stopped treating under-eating like a flex.If you're in your start-over era, or just tired of doing the most and feeling the least, this one's for you.What's Discussed:  (00:00) If I could start my fitness journey over…(05:08) Why strength training would be my day one(08:03) The truth about soreness and sweat(13:56) How under-eating held me back(17:33) Walking for recovery, not just rings(20:11) The warm-up I used to skip (and now swear by)(24:14) You don't need more, you need the right thingsThank You to Our Sponsors:Broads: Ready to ditch the BS and start feeling strong in your body?

In this episode of Muscle Intelligence, Ben Pakulski sits down with Dr. Eduardo De Souza, one of the top hypertrophy researchers in the world, to break down the real science behind building muscle. They unpack why most studies don't use the gold standard (MRI), how ultrasound stacks up, and whether training volume, exercise selection, or rep schemes truly matter. They explore the myths around sarcoplasmic hypertrophy, how aging affects muscle quality, and what actually determines growth after 40. Whether you're a coach, athlete, or lifelong lifter, this is essential knowledge for training smarter, not just harder. Get ready for a deep, clear, and evidence-backed conversation on hypertrophy like you've never heard before.   Points To Watch Out For  MRI is still the gold standard for hypertrophy Ultrasound can be a valid, cheaper alternative Aging muscle shows more fibrous, non-contractile tissue High volume ≠ always better gains, individual response matters Effective Reps Model lacks peer-reviewed validation About Ben Ben Pakulski is the Chief Performance Officer to elite executives, successful entrepreneurs, and top athletes. With over 25 years of experience, he coaches high achievers to build the physical, psychological, and metabolic resilience required to lead at the highest level.

SummaryIn this episode, Chase and Chris kick off a new mini-series all about progressive overload. They explain why so many people work hard in the gym but don't see the results they want. It's not that you're lazy or doing everything wrong — it's that your body has adapted to what you're doing! They talk about how group fitness classes and doing the same workouts over and over can only take you so far.To get stronger and build muscle, you have to challenge your body in new ways. They also share signs that you might be stuck, like when your usual weights feel easy or you don't feel sore anymore. Most of all, they remind you that progress takes patience, and you don't need to throw everything out and start over.

Why BFR is no longer just for injury rehab, and how pro athletes are using it to boost performance and speed up recovery. The science behind why restricting blood flow (safely!) creates powerful training adaptations. How Warren's product ended up on a SpaceX rocket, and why NASA now uses BFR to fight muscle loss in space. Common myths and misconceptions about BFR… including whether it's safe (spoiler: it is, with the right approach). Where BFR is heading next, from grassroots athletes to medical rehab and even everyday gym-goers. Warren also shares his incredible journey, from working in the Premier League to founding a company used by over 260 elite teams worldwide, all the way to collaborating with NASA for space missions.

In my journey as a podcast host and wellness author, few experts have shaped my understanding as profoundly as Dr. James DiNicolantonio. His groundbreaking work on minerals, particularly sodium, magnesium, and potassium, has become foundational as I craft my 40th book, “Belly Goes First”, a powerful new approach to erasing hunger, reversing belly fat, and promoting lifelong wellness. Alongside previous conversations with Dr. Jason Fung and Robb Wolf, these four interviews with Dr. James represent some of the most significant recordings I've made since launching this podcast. Today, I'm thrilled to share this special “super series,” bringing together all four enlightening discussions dating back to our very first meeting in 2018, where Dr. James initially opened my eyes to the transformative power of minerals. These insights have also become the scientific cornerstone for my passion project and life's opus, Zero Hunger Water. Please note that the first interview includes video, while the remaining three are audio-only but just as impactful—turn on captions for additional clarity. This special episode gives you the science, practical tools, and inspiration to not only conquer hunger forever but also radically improve athletic performance, longevity, and overall health.Episode Chapters & Highlights00:00 Welcome & Introduction02:13 Interview 1: Dr. James on Unleashing the Power of Salt to Maximize Performance • 05:45 How Coffee Depletes Sodium (Caffeine & Salt Loss) • 08:47 Salt Preloading for Better Athletic Performance • 09:26 Salt vs. Sugar Addiction & Cravings Control • 28:30 Importance of Magnesium, Potassium, and Glycine in Hydration • 29:26 Optimal Protein Intake for Muscle Growth and Recovery • 36:00 Boosting Blood Volume: The Secret to Energy & Endurance44:44 Interview 2: Dr. James on the Powerful Health Secrets of Minerals • 46:24 Breaking Free from Sugar & Carb Cravings with Sodium • 53:27 Solving “Salt Sensitivity” by Reducing Refined Carbs • 55:01 Salt and Blood Pressure: The Carb Connection • 1:02:11 Understanding Electrolytes: Sodium, Magnesium, Potassium • 1:03:28 Dr. James's Recommended Mineral-Rich Water • 1:10:00 The Critical Role of Magnesium in Cellular Energy (ATP)01:33:53 Interview 3: Dr. James on a Deep Dive Into Weight Loss with Salt • 1:34:33 How Salt Regulates Hunger & Fat Storage Hormones • 1:35:37 Reducing Sugar Addiction Through Proper Salt Intake • 1:36:27 “Zero Hunger Water” – A Powerful Appetite Suppressant • 1:37:10 Historical Significance of Salt in Human Diet • 2:01:00 Fasting & Salt: Clearing up Common Myths • 2:02:30 How Salt Supports Autophagy and Immunity During Fasting02:21:51 Interview 4: Dr. James on Why Sodium Will Give You Radical Control of Your Health • 2:24:50 The Origin Story Behind “The Salt Fix” • 2:26:36 How Experts Misunderstood and Demonized Salt • 2:50:26 The Stress Response Triggered by Low Salt Diets • 2:51:56 Finding the Optimal Salt Intake (3–5 grams daily) • 2:57:28 The Surprising Link Between Salt Intake and Longevity • 3:00:00 Practical Recommendations for Ideal Sodium Consumption

Episode 2965: Christian Finn unpacks the truth behind the muscle pump, revealing that while it feels great and offers some hypertrophic benefits, it isn't essential for muscle growth. 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." "Getting a pump feels good. Arnold Schwarzenegger called it 'the greatest feeling you can get in the gym.'" Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
