755 - Getting Stronger, But Not Bigger, and Intuitive Refeeds vs. Scheduled Diet-Breaks
Episode description
This podcast Q&A is STRICTLY body composition focused! We dive into exactly how I'd approach training if I were back in my newbie gains stage or returning back to the gym after a long (1+ year) break off, how to get stronger while NOT getting bigger, my coaching opinion on scheduling refeeds or diet breaks compared to intuitively basing them off a clients' biofeedback, and finally -- where I personally go, and suggest going, to enhance your knowledge based of training and nutrition (as a coach).

I’m currently doing a 3 day full body split

- Self Journal - Really simple, but nice for someone who wants a journal that's both reflective/personal as well as helpful for organization for their work.
