In this episode, I’m breaking down one of the biggest mistakes I see in fitness: trying to find a universal answer to questions that actually depend on the individual. I talk about how to approach body-fat estimates, how to correct muscular imbalances, and why training a muscle once or twice per week isn’t automatically better or worse.
Your training experience, volume, intensity, recovery, goals, and even the stress in your life all have to be considered when building an effective program.
I also get into a question that led me down a bit of a programming rabbit hole: what if you only had 30 minutes to train, but could train twice a day? I explain how you could structure push/pull/legs or upper/lower training around that schedule, how to prioritize weak points, and why compound movements become especially important when time is limited.
