Episode Details

In this episode, I explain why building muscle is such a slow process and how poor training and programming can make it even slower. I go through seven common training and programming mistakes that can hold back muscle growth and keep you from getting the most out of your training.

I also share how I approach training frequency, exercise selection, training intensity, exercise execution, and rep ranges when the goal is to build as much muscle as possible.

This episode will help you identify where your training may be holding you back and what you can change to make better progress over time.
