I find myself questioning the show’s BEYOND curious choices, particularly in excluding categories like women’s physique, figure, and 212 men’s bodybuilding. With a healthy dose of skepticism, I delve... Read More »

How much does food quality really matter when it comes to your diet in bodybuilding? There’s “healthy”, but then what about just dropping body fat or building muscle? And can you be “healthy” even if you eat some junk food? And how do we want to define that, anyway? In episode 263 I break down... Read More »

Today in podcast land, we have a question from Grace where we hit the intensity question from still another angle – and this time I think I land on something actionable that you can take with you and apply to your own training – every. Freakin’. Day. Consider it homework!

And then, I break down some actual judging feedback one of my clients received from a show a couple weeks ago and outline just how ridiculous the whole idea of judging is with the standards that are currently established. And this is from an OCB show, which just goes to show that judging clusterfucks play no favorites as far as organizations go (note: this is NOT a complaint about the show results, which were favorable).
