A must-listen for your next building phase if you want to gain muscle while staying lean.
This episode is for those who are doing a reverse diet, about to build, or already in a growth phase and low-key panicking about the scale, their jeans fitting, or “getting bulky.”
Bella and I talk through what a real muscle-building phase looks like; the mindset, the training precision, and the nutrition structure it takes to add lean tissue without letting it turn into a sloppy bulk. We discuss why muscle growth is a long game, why it should be taken just as seriously (if not more) than a cut, and how to stay locked in when you’re not getting those fast, visible “I’m leaner!” wins.
