Build muscle, burn body fat, look better, feel better. What's the least better, feel better. What's the least better, feel better. What's the least amount you can do though to get results? amount you can do though to get results? amount you can do though to get results? Two days a week, one day a week? What if Two days a week, one day a week? What if Two days a week, one day a week? What if you did one exercise a day? Does it you did one exercise a day? Does it you did one exercise a day? Does it actually produce visible results? Well, actually produce visible results? Well, actually produce visible results? Well, you're going to hear three experienced you're going to hear three experienced you're going to hear three experienced trainers talk about this right now. trainers talk about this right now. trainers talk about this right now. What's the least amount you could do to What's the least amount you could do to What's the least amount you could do to elicit the most amount of change? elicit the most amount of change? elicit the most amount of change? >> The answer will surprise you. Yeah, >> The answer will surprise you. Yeah, >> The answer will surprise you. Yeah, >> this um this varies a lot. uh based off >> this um this varies a lot. uh based off >> this um this varies a lot. uh based off of your your prior lifting experience. of your your prior lifting experience. of your your prior lifting experience. So, I think we could we could have this So, I think we could we could have this So, I think we could we could have this discussion based off of somebody who's discussion based off of somebody who's discussion based off of somebody who's never lifted. What's the least amount never lifted. What's the least amount never lifted. What's the least amount you have to do you have to do you have to do >> and and have like an honest like, okay, >> and and have like an honest like, okay, >> and and have like an honest like, okay, this is where I think the the least this is where I think the the least this is where I think the the least amount of volume of training and amount of volume of training and amount of volume of training and frequency to stimulate good change and frequency to stimulate good change and frequency to stimulate good change and growth. And then I think I think that growth. And then I think I think that growth. And then I think I think that becomes even less the the the longer becomes even less the the the longer becomes even less the the the longer you've been training and the more of a you've been training and the more of a you've been training and the more of a foundation that you have foundation that you have foundation that you have >> like you have muscle memory going. >> like you have muscle memory going. >> like you have muscle memory going. >> Yeah. Yeah. >> Yeah. Yeah. >> Yeah. Yeah. >> Let's start with general cuz I hear >> Let's start with general cuz I hear >> Let's start with general cuz I hear where you're going. Let's start with where you're going. Let's start with where you're going. Let's start with like the general person. Um what's like the general person. Um what's like the general person. Um what's interesting about this I could pull up interesting about this I could pull up interesting about this I could pull up studies. studies. studies. >> I could pull up studies that show that >> I could pull up studies that show that >> I could pull up studies that show that one isometric contra contraction once a one isometric contra contraction once a one isometric contra contraction once a week yields significant strength gain. week yields significant strength gain. week yields significant strength gain. >> That's hilarious. >> That's hilarious. >> That's hilarious. >> Over the course of like eight weeks. So, >> Over the course of like eight weeks. So, >> Over the course of like eight weeks. So, an isometric contraction isn't even a an isometric contraction isn't even a an isometric contraction isn't even a like you're not lifting anything. You're like you're not lifting anything. You're like you're not lifting anything. You're just squeezing squeezing for 30 seconds. just squeezing squeezing for 30 seconds. just squeezing squeezing for 30 seconds. >> You can do that in your chair right now. >> You can do that in your chair right now. >> You can do that in your chair right now. >> Yeah. And um so there's studies that >> Yeah. And um so there's studies that >> Yeah. And um so there's studies that show that. Um and so strength gain show that. Um and so strength gain show that. Um and so strength gain happens with almost anything if your happens with almost anything if your happens with almost anything if your baseline is nothing. So if you're baseline is nothing. So if you're baseline is nothing. So if you're starting with nothing, almost anything starting with nothing, almost anything starting with nothing, almost anything will produce some changes in terms of will produce some changes in terms of will produce some changes in terms of strength. But like what what would you strength. But like what what would you strength. But like what what would you guys say would be like the minimum that guys say would be like the minimum that guys say would be like the minimum that would uh kind of produce visible change would uh kind of produce visible change would uh kind of produce visible change if someone were consistent with it, if someone were consistent with it, if someone were consistent with it, right? Like if someone were consistent right? Like if someone were consistent right? Like if someone were consistent with it and what form of exercise would with it and what form of exercise would with it and what form of exercise would you choose for this? I think I know what you choose for this? I think I know what you choose for this? I think I know what the answer is, but the answer is, but the answer is, but >> yeah, of course you know of course you >> yeah, of course you know of course you >> yeah, of course you know of course you know it's strength training one day a know it's strength training one day a know it's strength training one day a week of a full body routine week of a full body routine week of a full body routine >> uh will will show change in someone's >> uh will will show change in someone's >> uh will will show change in someone's physique. physique. physique. >> Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Two two >> Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Two two >> Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Two two >> two I think consistently. I mean, two >> two I think consistently. I mean, two >> two I think consistently. I mean, two two full body chains a week. two full body chains a week. two full body chains a week. >> Great results. >> Great results. >> Great results. >> Yeah. Could could uh build the physique >> Yeah. Could could uh build the physique >> Yeah. Could could uh build the physique that I would say 90% of the people are that I would say 90% of the people are that I would say 90% of the people are looking for. looking for. looking for. >> I trained I had a lot of clients uh >> I trained I had a lot of clients uh >> I trained I had a lot of clients uh probably I'd say 40% of my clients, so probably I'd say 40% of my clients, so probably I'd say 40% of my clients, so almost half of my clients towards the almost half of my clients towards the almost half of my clients towards the back half of my career only train with back half of my career only train with back half of my career only train with me once a week. Now, they were active me once a week. Now, they were active me once a week. Now, they were active throughout the week, so they would try throughout the week, so they would try throughout the week, so they would try doing things like walking or hiking or doing things like walking or hiking or doing things like walking or hiking or cycling. So, um, they would they would cycling. So, um, they would they would cycling. So, um, they would they would still move, still move, still move, >> but they weren't doing structured >> but they weren't doing structured >> but they weren't doing structured workouts, workouts, workouts, >> but one day a week they would do a >> but one day a week they would do a >> but one day a week they would do a structured workout with me, and they all structured workout with me, and they all structured workout with me, and they all were all very pleased. In fact, uh, one were all very pleased. In fact, uh, one were all very pleased. In fact, uh, one of the reasons why they were so so of the reasons why they were so so of the reasons why they were so so pleased with the results is they were pleased with the results is they were pleased with the results is they were surprised. surprised. surprised. >> Mhm. >> Mhm. >> Mhm. >> They were surprised that they actually >> They were surprised that they actually >> They were surprised that they actually saw physical and visible changes, which saw physical and visible changes, which saw physical and visible changes, which just like you said, Adam, one full body just like you said, Adam, one full body just like you said, Adam, one full body uh, workout a week. And and now I want uh, workout a week. And and now I want uh, workout a week. And and now I want people to understand that uh you can people to understand that uh you can people to understand that uh you can progress and change the workout as you progress and change the workout as you progress and change the workout as you go along. So this doesn't mean go along. So this doesn't mean go along. So this doesn't mean necessarily necessarily necessarily you're lifting the same weight, same you're lifting the same weight, same you're lifting the same weight, same intensity every every time you work out. intensity every every time you work out. intensity every every time you work out. You're going to get stronger if you do You're going to get stronger if you do You're going to get stronger if you do this and you are going to add weight to this and you are going to add weight to this and you are going to add weight to the bar and you are going to be able to the bar and you are going to be able to the bar and you are going to be able to do more reps. So the workout does do more reps. So the workout does do more reps. So the workout does progress, progress, progress, but you don't need to do more for a long but you don't need to do more for a long but you don't need to do more for a long time. And two days a week is plenty. We time. And two days a week is plenty. We time. And two days a week is plenty. We make the case all the time. That's the make the case all the time. That's the make the case all the time. That's the cool part about training too. It eb and cool part about training too. It eb and cool part about training too. It eb and flows. And so it's like you can have a flows. And so it's like you can have a flows. And so it's like you can have a goal and you can seek out this specific goal and you can seek out this specific goal and you can seek out this specific goal. You can train for it, you know, goal. You can train for it, you know, goal. You can train for it, you know, and then you could actually shift your and then you could actually shift your and then you could actually shift your entire focus and work on something else entire focus and work on something else entire focus and work on something else uh to build up strength in different uh to build up strength in different uh to build up strength in different areas and avenues. And I think that like areas and avenues. And I think that like areas and avenues. And I think that like it's not a linear thing. Like people it's not a linear thing. Like people it's not a linear thing. Like people think about like creating this routine think about like creating this routine think about like creating this routine that's like going to be this long-term that's like going to be this long-term that's like going to be this long-term forever routine. You're going to forever routine. You're going to forever routine. You're going to interrupt that routine. Obviously, you interrupt that routine. Obviously, you interrupt that routine. Obviously, you want a baseline. Uh that's something want a baseline. Uh that's something want a baseline. Uh that's something consistent. That's why the one to two consistent. That's why the one to two consistent. That's why the one to two time a week thing is so great because time a week thing is so great because time a week thing is so great because it's like this is something that's very it's like this is something that's very it's like this is something that's very attainable and consistency wise you're attainable and consistency wise you're attainable and consistency wise you're going to do the best with it and you can going to do the best with it and you can going to do the best with it and you can fluctuate from there. fluctuate from there. fluctuate from there. >> Yeah. I think another thing to >> Yeah. I think another thing to >> Yeah. I think another thing to understand with this is your body can understand with this is your body can understand with this is your body can only progress so fast. So there's a only progress so fast. So there's a only progress so fast. So there's a limit to how quickly your body can limit to how quickly your body can limit to how quickly your body can progress and doing more to try to push progress and doing more to try to push progress and doing more to try to push that h to make it happen faster actually that h to make it happen faster actually that h to make it happen faster actually starts to make it uh work slower. starts to make it uh work slower. starts to make it uh work slower. >> Well, there's a good argument that this >> Well, there's a good argument that this >> Well, there's a good argument that this is ideally where everybody should kind is ideally where everybody should kind is ideally where everybody should kind of start and build on. of start and build on. of start and build on. >> Yes. >> Yes. >> Yes. >> But it doesn't happen that way, right? >> But it doesn't happen that way, right? >> But it doesn't happen that way, right? What happens is New Year's resolution, What happens is New Year's resolution, What happens is New Year's resolution, doctor tells you something, weddings doctor tells you something, weddings doctor tells you something, weddings coming around the corner, summer coming around the corner, summer coming around the corner, summer vacation, you know, there's some sort of vacation, you know, there's some sort of vacation, you know, there's some sort of external factor that creates this sense external factor that creates this sense external factor that creates this sense of urgency of urgency of urgency >> for you um or change, and you go from >> for you um or change, and you go from >> for you um or change, and you go from not doing it at all to doing what you not doing it at all to doing what you not doing it at all to doing what you think is the most you're capable of think is the most you're capable of think is the most you're capable of doing to move towards that goal. when in doing to move towards that goal. when in doing to move towards that goal. when in reality reality reality you would be more ideal to start with you would be more ideal to start with you would be more ideal to start with just this one day a week and build just this one day a week and build just this one day a week and build consistency and and scale and progress consistency and and scale and progress consistency and and scale and progress that workout for probably as long as you that workout for probably as long as you that workout for probably as long as you can until it's like okay like I'm loving can until it's like okay like I'm loving can until it's like okay like I'm loving this so much and this is now this is this so much and this is now this is this so much and this is now this is like brushing my teeth now I want to do like brushing my teeth now I want to do like brushing my teeth now I want to do another yeah I don't no longer never say another yeah I don't no longer never say another yeah I don't no longer never say whatever day it is if you find that whatever day it is if you find that whatever day it is if you find that Sundays are like your easier days to get Sundays are like your easier days to get Sundays are like your easier days to get to this to start this one day a week to this to start this one day a week to this to start this one day a week routine. I now become the guy who lifts routine. I now become the guy who lifts routine. I now become the guy who lifts every single Sunday and I like it and I every single Sunday and I like it and I every single Sunday and I like it and I love it. It's a part of my routine. It's love it. It's a part of my routine. It's love it. It's a part of my routine. It's like, huh, I wonder if I became the guy like, huh, I wonder if I became the guy like, huh, I wonder if I became the guy who did Sunday and a one weekday like who did Sunday and a one weekday like who did Sunday and a one weekday like Wednesday or Thursday or whatever other Wednesday or Thursday or whatever other Wednesday or Thursday or whatever other day that you work and like and then you day that you work and like and then you day that you work and like and then you start to do that like that would be uh I start to do that like that would be uh I start to do that like that would be uh I think if people did that cuz here's think if people did that cuz here's think if people did that cuz here's what's nice about and it's not that you what's nice about and it's not that you what's nice about and it's not that you can't can't can't still do too much and overtrain uh in a still do too much and overtrain uh in a still do too much and overtrain uh in a in a single day. uh you you can um with in a single day. uh you you can um with in a single day. uh you you can um with intensity and you could still have bad intensity and you could still have bad intensity and you could still have bad programming, right? But programming, right? But programming, right? But >> you're less likely to uh overtrain or uh >> you're less likely to uh overtrain or uh >> you're less likely to uh overtrain or uh you know do too much of a workout, I you know do too much of a workout, I you know do too much of a workout, I guess, in in a in a single workout. guess, in in a in a single workout. guess, in in a in a single workout. Especially if you keep it, you know, an Especially if you keep it, you know, an Especially if you keep it, you know, an hour, hour and a half at at most uh for hour, hour and a half at at most uh for hour, hour and a half at at most uh for that one workout, I think that you'd that one workout, I think that you'd that one workout, I think that you'd probably be all right. uh where I find probably be all right. uh where I find probably be all right. uh where I find most people when they get started most people when they get started most people when they get started because of the you know external because of the you know external because of the you know external motivation to do as much as they can motivation to do as much as they can motivation to do as much as they can they they typically do they do too much they they typically do they do too much they they typically do they do too much um and end up getting less results. um and end up getting less results. um and end up getting less results. That's right. And they would get far That's right. And they would get far That's right. And they would get far more if they did a more appropriate dose more if they did a more appropriate dose more if they did a more appropriate dose uh and and that's not just because uh and and that's not just because uh and and that's not just because they're new and getting started. It's they're new and getting started. It's they're new and getting started. It's also in the context of what they're also in the context of what they're also in the context of what they're doing dietwise, stress, and the rest of doing dietwise, stress, and the rest of doing dietwise, stress, and the rest of their livant. their livant. their livant. >> Yeah. There's there's so many other >> Yeah. There's there's so many other >> Yeah. There's there's so many other variables where if and let's say that variables where if and let's say that variables where if and let's say that all stayed consistent, you know, the all stayed consistent, you know, the all stayed consistent, you know, the stress levels and and the you not being stress levels and and the you not being stress levels and and the you not being as perfect with the diet and you only as perfect with the diet and you only as perfect with the diet and you only introduce one day of strength training, introduce one day of strength training, introduce one day of strength training, the the likelihood that that's just the the likelihood that that's just the the likelihood that that's just going to overspill that stress bucket is going to overspill that stress bucket is going to overspill that stress bucket is less likely than the guy who decides I'm less likely than the guy who decides I'm less likely than the guy who decides I'm super motivated. I'm going to go to the super motivated. I'm going to go to the super motivated. I'm going to go to the gym every day I can and and push as hard gym every day I can and and push as hard gym every day I can and and push as hard as I can in the context of not getting as I can in the context of not getting as I can in the context of not getting enough nutrition, not sleeping the best, enough nutrition, not sleeping the best, enough nutrition, not sleeping the best, not you know what I'm saying? I think not you know what I'm saying? I think not you know what I'm saying? I think there's a really a really interesting there's a really a really interesting there's a really a really interesting way I think this would be a good way to way I think this would be a good way to way I think this would be a good way to look at this is uh look at exercise look at this is uh look at exercise look at this is uh look at exercise as a way to um improve a physical as a way to um improve a physical as a way to um improve a physical ability and look at diet as a way to ability and look at diet as a way to ability and look at diet as a way to manipulate uh body fat percent right so manipulate uh body fat percent right so manipulate uh body fat percent right so >> if I so uh cardio is for endurance >> if I so uh cardio is for endurance >> if I so uh cardio is for endurance strength training for strength and strength training for strength and strength training for strength and muscle diet is to get leaner and then muscle diet is to get leaner and then muscle diet is to get leaner and then there's activity just daily activity there's activity just daily activity there's activity just daily activity daily activity is not for anything other daily activity is not for anything other daily activity is not for anything other than I it's just good for you to move than I it's just good for you to move than I it's just good for you to move >> so look at it that way. And if I >> so look at it that way. And if I >> so look at it that way. And if I approach strength training with the goal approach strength training with the goal approach strength training with the goal of just getting stronger, once a week is of just getting stronger, once a week is of just getting stronger, once a week is plenty. Uh if I want more endurance, plenty. Uh if I want more endurance, plenty. Uh if I want more endurance, well then I can have some harder, you well then I can have some harder, you well then I can have some harder, you know, cardio workouts if I want know, cardio workouts if I want know, cardio workouts if I want endurance. But most people don't really endurance. But most people don't really endurance. But most people don't really care too much about lots of endurance. care too much about lots of endurance. care too much about lots of endurance. They just want to look better. So you They just want to look better. So you They just want to look better. So you can actually skip that. You could walk can actually skip that. You could walk can actually skip that. You could walk daily for the activity. And then diet, daily for the activity. And then diet, daily for the activity.

It was It was Doug when Doug hired me. It was It was Doug when Doug hired me. It was It was Doug when Doug hired me. Doug, how old were you when you first Doug, how old were you when you first Doug, how old were you when you first hired me? hired me? hired me? >> Probably about 47. >> Probably about 47. >> Probably about 47. >> So 47. So Doug, and correct me if I'm >> So 47. So Doug, and correct me if I'm >> So 47. So Doug, and correct me if I'm wrong, so I'm going to try and, you wrong, so I'm going to try and, you wrong, so I'm going to try and, you know, replay this. Doug came and hired know, replay this. Doug came and hired know, replay this. Doug came and hired me. He was referred to me by his me. He was referred to me by his me. He was referred to me by his chiropractor. He was not a beginner. He chiropractor. He was not a beginner. He chiropractor. He was not a beginner. He had experience with workouts and had experience with workouts and had experience with workouts and strength training and fitness. Lots of strength training and fitness. Lots of strength training and fitness. Lots of experience, right? I mean, you'd done a experience, right? I mean, you'd done a experience, right? I mean, you'd done a lot up until then. lot up until then. lot up until then. >> Since I was 16 years old. >> Since I was 16 years old. >> Since I was 16 years old. >> Okay. Yeah. So Doug had done all this >> Okay. Yeah. So Doug had done all this >> Okay. Yeah. So Doug had done all this stuff and he'd gone through cycles of stuff and he'd gone through cycles of stuff and he'd gone through cycles of getting leaner, gaining a little bit of getting leaner, gaining a little bit of getting leaner, gaining a little bit of body fat, never really dropping off, but body fat, never really dropping off, but body fat, never really dropping off, but always doing something, whether it was always doing something, whether it was always doing something, whether it was running or lots of bodybuilding or running or lots of bodybuilding or running or lots of bodybuilding or playing lots of tennis.

So Doug comes in >> Those little shorts. So Doug comes in >> Those little shorts. So Doug comes in and and hires me based off of uh the and and hires me based off of uh the and and hires me based off of uh the recommendation of a chiropractor recommendation of a chiropractor recommendation of a chiropractor uh with the expectation that I would uh with the expectation that I would uh with the expectation that I would have him work out with me four or five have him work out with me four or five have him work out with me four or five days a week. So this was actually Doug days a week. So this was actually Doug days a week. So this was actually Doug was ready to give me money for four five was ready to give me money for four five was ready to give me money for four five days a week and I had I actually days a week and I had I actually days a week and I had I actually convinced Doug two days a week. We're convinced Doug two days a week. We're convinced Doug two days a week. We're just going to lift weights two days a just going to lift weights two days a just going to lift weights two days a week. Now on top of that you were also week. Now on top of that you were also week. Now on top of that you were also moving daily. I think you were playing moving daily. I think you were playing moving daily. I think you were playing tennis at the time. tennis at the time. tennis at the time. >> Yeah. So, it's tennis, running like you >> Yeah. So, it's tennis, running like you >> Yeah. So, it's tennis, running like you said, uh sometimes lifting weights. said, uh sometimes lifting weights. said, uh sometimes lifting weights. >> Yeah. But mostly it was just me and you >> Yeah. But mostly it was just me and you >> Yeah. But mostly it was just me and you lifting weights. lifting weights. lifting weights. >> Oh, so at that time, yeah, I think I'd >> Oh, so at that time, yeah, I think I'd >> Oh, so at that time, yeah, I think I'd cut my tennis down quite a bit. cut my tennis down quite a bit. cut my tennis down quite a bit. >> Yeah. >> Yeah. >> Yeah. >> At that time. >> At that time. >> At that time. >> Yeah. So, we were just lifting twice a >> Yeah. So, we were just lifting twice a >> Yeah. So, we were just lifting twice a week. Um and so here's Doug, 47 years week. Um and so here's Doug, 47 years week. Um and so here's Doug, 47 years old. old. old. >> Mhm. >> Mhm. >> Mhm. >> Uh when we first started, his deadlift >> Uh when we first started, his deadlift >> Uh when we first started, his deadlift started at like 135. Um he actually came started at like 135. Um he actually came started at like 135. Um he actually came to me with back problems. Um and through to me with back problems. Um and through to me with back problems. Um and through two days a week of strength training, two days a week of strength training, two days a week of strength training, got his deadlift up to 405 pounds. got his deadlift up to 405 pounds. got his deadlift up to 405 pounds. uh and radically transformed his body uh and radically transformed his body uh and radically transformed his body two days a week. In fact, this is what two days a week. In fact, this is what two days a week. In fact, this is what con this is what one of the reasons why con this is what one of the reasons why con this is what one of the reasons why he was encouraged to come and approach he was encouraged to come and approach he was encouraged to come and approach me about starting a business uh around me about starting a business uh around me about starting a business uh around this. That was two days a week. If you this. That was two days a week. If you this. That was two days a week. If you actually look at the data on how much actually look at the data on how much actually look at the data on how much you can accomplish with strength you can accomplish with strength you can accomplish with strength training, one day a week will get you training, one day a week will get you training, one day a week will get you about 60% 60 to 70% of all the results about 60% 60 to 70% of all the results about 60% 60 to 70% of all the results you could ever expect from strength you could ever expect from strength you could ever expect from strength training. Okay? Two days a week you're training. Okay? Two days a week you're training. Okay? Two days a week you're getting like 75%. 3 days a week, 85%. getting like 75%. 3 days a week, 85%. getting like 75%. 3 days a week, 85%. Now, if you want to go and be a Now, if you want to go and be a Now, if you want to go and be a bodybuilder, at some point you're bodybuilder, at some point you're bodybuilder, at some point you're looking at four, five days a week. Later looking at four, five days a week. Later looking at four, five days a week. Later on, when your body can tolerate it. So, on, when your body can tolerate it. So, on, when your body can tolerate it. So, consider this. Think of your total consider this. Think of your total consider this. Think of your total potential and capacity for muscle. potential and capacity for muscle. potential and capacity for muscle. Whatever your body's total capacity is Whatever your body's total capacity is Whatever your body's total capacity is now, would you be happy with 70% of now, would you be happy with 70% of now, would you be happy with 70% of that? I think most people would be very that? I think most people would be very that? I think most people would be very happy with that because they're at like happy with that because they're at like happy with that because they're at like 20% of their capacity. And the kicker is 20% of their capacity. And the kicker is 20% of their capacity. And the kicker is this. uh to get that 70% capacity. If I this. uh to get that 70% capacity. If I this. uh to get that 70% capacity. If I added more days, often times I'm not added more days, often times I'm not added more days, often times I'm not making it happen any faster. It's just making it happen any faster. It's just making it happen any faster. It's just the limit of where I would end up after the limit of where I would end up after the limit of where I would end up after years of training. Just to encourage years of training. Just to encourage years of training. Just to encourage people, very little is required for people, very little is required for people, very little is required for people to get when it comes to strength people to get when it comes to strength people to get when it comes to strength training in particular great results. training in particular great results. training in particular great results. Now, even though I I know there was many Now, even though I I know there was many Now, even though I I know there was many variables at play in in like Doug's variables at play in in like Doug's variables at play in in like Doug's situation, if you had to pen it to one situation, if you had to pen it to one situation, if you had to pen it to one main thing, uh why two days a week main thing, uh why two days a week main thing, uh why two days a week served him so much better than four or served him so much better than four or served him so much better than four or five days a week training, what would five days a week training, what would five days a week training, what would you say? you say? you say? >> He always overtrained. >> He always overtrained. >> He always overtrained. >> Always overtrained. It was uh intensity, >> Always overtrained. It was uh intensity, >> Always overtrained. It was uh intensity, lots of work. One thing Doug didn't lack lots of work. One thing Doug didn't lack lots of work. One thing Doug didn't lack is was motivation and discipline. He was is was motivation and discipline. He was is was motivation and discipline. He was very disciplined, very motivated. If I very disciplined, very motivated. If I very disciplined, very motivated. If I told him to work out twice a day, I told him to work out twice a day, I told him to work out twice a day, I think he would have. Uh but he always think he would have. Uh but he always think he would have. Uh but he always overtrained. So this was I think the overtrained. So this was I think the overtrained. So this was I think the first time you'd experienced appropriate first time you'd experienced appropriate first time you'd experienced appropriate >> Yeah. of course I got my education from >> Yeah. of course I got my education from >> Yeah. of course I got my education from Muscle and Fitness magazine, you know, Muscle and Fitness magazine, you know, Muscle and Fitness magazine, you know, from Ronnie Coleman and all those guys, from Ronnie Coleman and all those guys, from Ronnie Coleman and all those guys, right? And right? And right? And >> so I thought I had to take every set and >> so I thought I had to take every set and >> so I thought I had to take every set and every rep to the limit to failure. every rep to the limit to failure. every rep to the limit to failure. >> And uh the more the better, you know, I >> And uh the more the better, you know, I >> And uh the more the better, you know, I didn't realize the concept of having to didn't realize the concept of having to didn't realize the concept of having to recover, you know, as a key critical recover, you know, as a key critical recover, you know, as a key critical component of building muscle. Yeah. component of building muscle. Yeah. component of building muscle. Yeah. >> Did Did you struggle with uh hitting >> Did Did you struggle with uh hitting >> Did Did you struggle with uh hitting protein consistently, too, or you protein consistently, too, or you protein consistently, too, or you >> So, that's something I really never even >> So, that's something I really never even >> So, that's something I really never even paid attention to. paid attention to. paid attention to. >> No, that was later, dude. >> No, that was later, dude. >> No, that was later, dude. >> Yeah. I mean, I did I bought protein >> Yeah. I mean, I did I bought protein >> Yeah. I mean, I did I bought protein powders. powders. powders. >> Sure. That's what everybody does, right? >> Sure.

They buy the shakes, They buy the shakes, They buy the shakes, >> but I never really focused on having my >> but I never really focused on having my >> but I never really focused on having my diet be proteinentric. diet be proteinentric. diet be proteinentric. >> Yeah. >> Yeah. >> Yeah. >> And but and just so people understand >> And but and just so people understand >> And but and just so people understand when you're working, when you're working, when you're working, >> which by the way is a is is a is a >> which by the way is a is is a is a >> which by the way is a is is a is a recipe for the trap that you're alluding recipe for the trap that you're alluding recipe for the trap that you're alluding to right now, right? So overtrain cuz to right now, right? So overtrain cuz to right now, right? So overtrain cuz there's there's there's >> lots of exercise, not enough protein. >> lots of exercise, not enough protein. >> lots of exercise, not enough protein. >> Cuz there's there's there's there's a a >> Cuz there's there's there's there's a a >> Cuz there's there's there's there's a a bodybuilding myth that, you know, bodybuilding myth that, you know, bodybuilding myth that, you know, there's no such thing as overtraining, there's no such thing as overtraining, there's no such thing as overtraining, just undereating. just undereating. just undereating. >> That's crazy. >> That's crazy. >> That's crazy. >> Now, with like many other bodybuilding >> Now, with like many other bodybuilding >> Now, with like many other bodybuilding myths, there's there is some uh there is myths, there's there is some uh there is myths, there's there is some uh there is some truth to it. meaning that in in some truth to it. meaning that in in some truth to it. meaning that in in Doug's situation, uh maybe he could have Doug's situation, uh maybe he could have Doug's situation, uh maybe he could have handled three days a week if he was handled three days a week if he was handled three days a week if he was really good about hitting his protein really good about hitting his protein really good about hitting his protein consistently or whatever like that, but consistently or whatever like that, but consistently or whatever like that, but typically what we see is people are not typically what we see is people are not typically what we see is people are not only overtraining, but they're also only overtraining, but they're also only overtraining, but they're also under consuming protein. And in that under consuming protein. And in that under consuming protein. And in that context, it's like a recipe for context, it's like a recipe for context, it's like a recipe for >> totally >> totally >> totally >> hard plateau, not building any muscle or >> hard plateau, not building any muscle or >> hard plateau, not building any muscle or strength, not recovering. strength, not recovering. strength, not recovering. >> And so, yes, swinging him back the other >> And so, yes, swinging him back the other >> And so, yes, swinging him back the other direction and all of a sudden, boom, you direction and all of a sudden, boom, you direction and all of a sudden, boom, you see this huge see this huge see this huge >> Well, here's here's the thing, too. like >> Well, here's here's the thing, too. like >> Well, here's here's the thing, too. like uh if you're trying this out, I think uh uh if you're trying this out, I think uh uh if you're trying this out, I think uh looking at the mirror and trying to see looking at the mirror and trying to see looking at the mirror and trying to see visible changes is not really a great visible changes is not really a great visible changes is not really a great way to gauge your results, especially in way to gauge your results, especially in way to gauge your results, especially in the beginning. Because if you're the beginning. Because if you're the beginning. Because if you're listening right now and you haven't listening right now and you haven't listening right now and you haven't worked out in a while or you haven't worked out in a while or you haven't worked out in a while or you haven't been consistent in a while, you're like, been consistent in a while, you're like, been consistent in a while, you're like, "Okay, I'm going to try this. I'm going "Okay, I'm going to try this. I'm going "Okay, I'm going to try this. I'm going to try one full body workout a week or to try one full body workout a week or to try one full body workout a week or two full body workouts a week. How do I two full body workouts a week. How do I two full body workouts a week. How do I know it's working?" You're getting know it's working?" You're getting know it's working?" You're getting stronger. And this is exactly what stronger. And this is exactly what stronger. And this is exactly what happened to Doug. Before his body happened to Doug. Before his body happened to Doug. Before his body visibly changed, it was weeks of just visibly changed, it was weeks of just visibly changed, it was weeks of just adding weight to the bar. He was just adding weight to the bar. He was just adding weight to the bar. He was just getting stronger and stronger and getting stronger and stronger and getting stronger and stronger and stronger and stronger and then boom, he stronger and stronger and then boom, he stronger and stronger and then boom, he noticed more muscle and this process noticed more muscle and this process noticed more muscle and this process continued for a couple years. continued for a couple years. continued for a couple years. >> So, if you're trying this out and you're >> So, if you're trying this out and you're >> So, if you're trying this out and you're like, "Let's see if this works. I'm just like, "Let's see if this works. I'm just like, "Let's see if this works. I'm just going to test it out." Here's what going to test it out." Here's what going to test it out." Here's what you'll notice. The next week, you'll do you'll notice. The next week, you'll do you'll notice. The next week, you'll do the workout, do the same exercises, and the workout, do the same exercises, and the workout, do the same exercises, and you'll add track your weight, 5 lbs of you'll add track your weight, 5 lbs of you'll add track your weight, 5 lbs of the bar, two reps. Guess what? It's the bar, two reps. Guess what? It's the bar, two reps. Guess what? It's working. You don't need to force it to working. You don't need to force it to working. You don't need to force it to happen. And in fact, forcing it or happen. And in fact, forcing it or happen.

Yeah, I think it, you know, if people would just take the time know, if people would just take the time know, if people would just take the time to experiment with that and find um, you to experiment with that and find um, you to experiment with that and find um, you know, what their recovery rate consisted know, what their recovery rate consisted know, what their recovery rate consisted of, like if they actually put more of, like if they actually put more of, like if they actually put more emphasis on getting your your protein, emphasis on getting your your protein, emphasis on getting your your protein, getting good sleep, um, lowering their getting good sleep, um, lowering their getting good sleep, um, lowering their stress levels in their lifestyle, like stress levels in their lifestyle, like stress levels in their lifestyle, like in general, even just that alone, and in general, even just that alone, and in general, even just that alone, and then you just stress just enough through then you just stress just enough through then you just stress just enough through exercise, um, what that would unlock for exercise, um, what that would unlock for exercise, um, what that would unlock for them in terms of like potential results them in terms of like potential results them in terms of like potential results and progress. Um it it's just not it's and progress. Um it it's just not it's and progress. Um it it's just not it's not stressed enough. That's why we're not stressed enough. That's why we're not stressed enough. That's why we're always bringing it up because it's just always bringing it up because it's just always bringing it up because it's just not in the common zeitgeist with not in the common zeitgeist with not in the common zeitgeist with everybody. It's just like it been everybody. It's just like it been everybody. It's just like it been marketed that we have to just in order marketed that we have to just in order marketed that we have to just in order to get the physique we want, we have to to get the physique we want, we have to to get the physique we want, we have to punish and and intensify and go through punish and and intensify and go through punish and and intensify and go through this like battle to get there. this like battle to get there. this like battle to get there. >> I just had this uh by the way, there's >> I just had this uh by the way, there's >> I just had this uh by the way, there's another way to do this. You could do one another way to do this. You could do one another way to do this. You could do one workout a week or you could do one lift workout a week or you could do one lift workout a week or you could do one lift a day, five days a week. So there's two a day, five days a week. So there's two a day, five days a week. So there's two approaches to this. So, one workout a approaches to this. So, one workout a approaches to this. So, one workout a week, five lifts in the workout would week, five lifts in the workout would week, five lifts in the workout would take you about an hour. Or you could take you about an hour. Or you could take you about an hour. Or you could just do one lift a day. So, whichever just do one lift a day. So, whichever just do one lift a day. So, whichever one works better for you. Um, I'm one works better for you. Um, I'm one works better for you. Um, I'm actually finding a lot of people do actually finding a lot of people do actually finding a lot of people do better with the one lift a day, better with the one lift a day, better with the one lift a day, especially if they have a home totally especially if they have a home totally especially if they have a home totally >> a home gym. I was just having this >> a home gym. I was just having this >> a home gym. I was just having this conversation with my friend Justin. He's conversation with my friend Justin. He's conversation with my friend Justin. He's a an ER doctor. Uh, and he's he's got a an ER doctor. Uh, and he's he's got a an ER doctor. Uh, and he's he's got that lifestyle, right? So, you know, ER that lifestyle, right? So, you know, ER that lifestyle, right? So, you know, ER doctors, they tend to like intensity and doctors, they tend to like intensity and doctors, they tend to like intensity and he's got that um he's got that mentality he's got that um he's got that mentality he's got that um he's got that mentality around a lot of things. And so, I took around a lot of things. And so, I took around a lot of things. And so, I took him through a workout. I trained him and him through a workout. I trained him and him through a workout. I trained him and he was just shocked. He's like, "You he was just shocked. He's like, "You he was just shocked. He's like, "You know, I always thought I had to like know, I always thought I had to like know, I always thought I had to like barely move the next day and beat myself barely move the next day and beat myself barely move the next day and beat myself up." I'm like, "No, dude. That's why up." I'm like, "No, dude. That's why up." I'm like, "No, dude. That's why it's so that's why you feel so burnt. it's so that's why you feel so burnt. it's so that's why you feel so burnt. That's why it's hard for you to be That's why it's hard for you to be That's why it's hard for you to be consistent. That's why it's hard for you consistent. That's why it's hard for you consistent. That's why it's hard for you to see progress." And so I trained him to see progress." And so I trained him to see progress." And so I trained him appropriately and he's like, "I feel appropriately and he's like, "I feel appropriately and he's like, "I feel good." Like that's how you're supposed good." Like that's how you're supposed good." Like that's how you're supposed to feel. And that's that was our first to feel. And that's that was our first to feel. And that's that was our first workout. Now you just wait cuz you know workout. Now you just wait cuz you know workout. Now you just wait cuz you know it's going to happen. I'm going to train it's going to happen. I'm going to train it's going to happen. I'm going to train him again this coming week and we're him again this coming week and we're him again this coming week and we're going to do the same exercises going to do the same exercises going to do the same exercises >> and he's going to see us add weight to >> and he's going to see us add weight to >> and he's going to see us add weight to the bar and it's going to blow his mind. the bar and it's going to blow his mind. the bar and it's going to blow his mind. >> Stronger and more energized. >> Stronger and more energized. >> Stronger and more energized. >> That's right. And he's going to be like, >> That's right. And he's going to be like, >> That's right. And he's going to be like, I can't what? How am I progressing? I can't what? How am I progressing? I can't what? How am I progressing? Because the the exercise sends the Because the the exercise sends the Because the the exercise sends the signal. It's not the thing that gets signal. It's not the thing that gets signal. It's not the thing that gets you're not building the muscle during you're not building the muscle during you're not building the muscle during the workout. You're just sending the the workout. You're just sending the the workout. You're just sending the signal. But if you overdo it, uh which signal. But if you overdo it, uh which signal. But if you overdo it, uh which is easy to do. Um then there is no uh is easy to do. Um then there is no uh is easy to do. Um then there is no uh adaptation process that's uh that's adaptation process that's uh that's adaptation process that's uh that's happening. And you can go really far uh happening. And you can go really far uh happening. And you can go really far uh with this approach. Plus, let's let's with this approach. Plus, let's let's with this approach. Plus, let's let's look at the other half of this, which is look at the other half of this, which is look at the other half of this, which is the real challenge is consistency the real challenge is consistency the real challenge is consistency anyway. So, um you know, if you've anyway. So, um you know, if you've anyway. So, um you know, if you've already probably experienced this where already probably experienced this where already probably experienced this where you've just started, you're really you've just started, you're really you've just started, you're really motivated, do a bunch, then stop, and motivated, do a bunch, then stop, and motivated, do a bunch, then stop, and just this on off of thing. The person just this on off of thing. The person just this on off of thing. The person who does something consistently and who does something consistently and who does something consistently and never stops is always going to do never stops is always going to do never stops is always going to do better. better. better. >> Oh, yeah. >> Oh, yeah. >> Oh, yeah. >> So, that's the other part of this, too, >> So, that's the other part of this, too, >> So, that's the other part of this, too, is even if it's hard for you to believe is even if it's hard for you to believe is even if it's hard for you to believe what we're saying, you've already tried what we're saying, you've already tried what we're saying, you've already tried the other way. and you know you failed the other way. and you know you failed the other way. and you know you failed because you stopped. So why don't you because you stopped. So why don't you because you stopped. So why don't you just do it this way anyway because just do it this way anyway because just do it this way anyway because you're going to be more consistent. you're going to be more consistent. you're going to be more consistent. >> Well, yeah. It'd be interesting to see >> Well, yeah. It'd be interesting to see >> Well, yeah. It'd be interesting to see like a long long studies that were like a long long studies that were like a long long studies that were pulled out a year or two uh the total pulled out a year or two uh the total pulled out a year or two uh the total volume over a year or two volume over a year or two volume over a year or two >> cuz I wouldn't be surprised if the >> cuz I wouldn't be surprised if the >> cuz I wouldn't be surprised if the >> they're going 3 months then going off >> they're going 3 months then going off >> they're going 3 months then going off for six months. Stretch it out. for six months. Stretch it out. for six months. Stretch it out. >> That's what I'm saying. Like you might >> That's what I'm saying. Like you might >> That's what I'm saying. Like you might you might go real hard, but then the the you might go real hard, but then the the you might go real hard, but then the the person who ends up just doing the super person who ends up just doing the super person who ends up just doing the super low volume one day a week or the two two low volume one day a week or the two two low volume one day a week or the two two day a week, day a week, day a week, >> right? Like at the end of if we actually >> right? Like at the end of if we actually >> right? Like at the end of if we actually zoomed out over two years and you factor zoomed out over two years and you factor zoomed out over two years and you factor in how much more consistent that person in how much more consistent that person in how much more consistent that person is to just committing to one or two days is to just committing to one or two days is to just committing to one or two days over two years it'd be interesting to over two years it'd be interesting to over two years it'd be interesting to see how different the volume actually see how different the volume actually see how different the volume actually is. You know it wouldn't probably you is. You know it wouldn't probably you is. You know it wouldn't probably you know there's a reason why I think we saw know there's a reason why I think we saw know there's a reason why I think we saw such a huge response um to maps 15. I such a huge response um to maps 15. I such a huge response um to maps 15. I don't think don't think don't think >> we'd seen anything like that since >> we'd seen anything like that since >> we'd seen anything like that since probably probably probably maps anabolic maps aesthetic time. I maps anabolic maps aesthetic time. I maps anabolic maps aesthetic time. I mean, we we had a big we had a big push. mean, we we had a big we had a big push. mean, we we had a big we had a big push. There's a lot of people that were There's a lot of people that were There's a lot of people that were interested in MAPS aesthetic, but MAP's interested in MAPS aesthetic, but MAP's interested in MAPS aesthetic, but MAP's anabolic as far as like the the results anabolic as far as like the the results anabolic as far as like the the results and it blows people's mind because we we and it blows people's mind because we we and it blows people's mind because we we really convinced a lot of body part really convinced a lot of body part really convinced a lot of body part split people to try full body routines split people to try full body routines split people to try full body routines out and I think it blew a lot of out and I think it blew a lot of out and I think it blew a lot of people's minds and it's always been the people's minds and it's always been the people's minds and it's always been the flagship product flagship product flagship product >> and what we've written 25 or so >> and what we've written 25 or so >> and what we've written 25 or so programs. programs. programs. >> Yeah. since then and uh nothing I think >> Yeah. since then and uh nothing I think >> Yeah. since then and uh nothing I think has got as many people or as much has got as many people or as much has got as many people or as much feedback as map 15 has and I think that feedback as map 15 has and I think that feedback as map 15 has and I think that has a lot to do and I wonder sometimes has a lot to do and I wonder sometimes has a lot to do and I wonder sometimes too like too like too like >> is that is it was that was that general >> is that is it was that was that general >> is that is it was that was that general like a general rule forever or is it like a general rule forever or is it like a general rule forever or is it more because of kind of where we're at more because of kind of where we're at more because of kind of where we're at today like I brought this up in the a today like I brought this up in the a today like I brought this up in the a podcast recently where we have this like podcast recently where we have this like podcast recently where we have this like low-level stress all day long. Um, more low-level stress all day long. Um, more low-level stress all day long. Um, more so it feels like than we did just like t so it feels like than we did just like t so it feels like than we did just like t like we had more acute stress back in like we had more acute stress back in like we had more acute stress back in the days, right? I brought up like the, the days, right? I brought up like the, the days, right? I brought up like the, you know, world war stuff and like you know, world war stuff and like you know, world war stuff and like crazy, crazy, crazy, >> you know, run for your life type of >> you know, run for your life type of >> you know, run for your life type of stress, stress, stress, >> but very slow paced kind of life.

If it w if it wasn't something like that, w if it wasn't something like that, w if it wasn't something like that, >> I think part of it is in the direction >> I think part of it is in the direction >> I think part of it is in the direction you're going, part of it is um people you're going, part of it is um people you're going, part of it is um people are uh just physically less resilient are uh just physically less resilient are uh just physically less resilient today because they're just we're just today because they're just we're just today because they're just we're just not active. not active. not active. >> Yeah. You go back 60 years inundated 70 >> Yeah. You go back 60 years inundated 70 >> Yeah. You go back 60 years inundated 70 years, you know, since you were 12, you years, you know, since you were 12, you years, you know, since you were 12, you were physically uh laborious. Like were physically uh laborious. Like were physically uh laborious. Like things were physical. I don't care if things were physical. I don't care if things were physical. I don't care if you were a stay-at-home wife or or or a you were a stay-at-home wife or or or a you were a stay-at-home wife or or or a guy going out to work. Like you had to guy going out to work. Like you had to guy going out to work. Like you had to wash clothes by hand. You're doing wash clothes by hand. You're doing wash clothes by hand. You're doing things by you're moving all the time. So things by you're moving all the time. So things by you're moving all the time. So now you take the average, you know, now you take the average, you know, now you take the average, you know, 35year-old, 40-year-old like, I want to 35year-old, 40-year-old like, I want to 35year-old, 40-year-old like, I want to start working out. Well, what does your start working out. Well, what does your start working out. Well, what does your day normally look like? day normally look like? day normally look like? >> Well, I wake up. >> Well, I wake up. >> Well, I wake up. >> Yeah. >> Yeah. >> Yeah. >> I get in the car. I drive to work. I sit >> I get in the car. I drive to work. I sit >> I get in the car. I drive to work. I sit at my desk all day. I come home, sit at my desk all day. I come home, sit at my desk all day. I come home, sit down, eat, and I watch TV and I go to down, eat, and I watch TV and I go to down, eat, and I watch TV and I go to bed. So, you're going to go from that to bed. So, you're going to go from that to bed.

And so what a guy does is exactly what I did so what a guy does is exactly what I did so what a guy does is exactly what I did is you buy all these boxes and then what is you buy all these boxes and then what is you buy all these boxes and then what you do is you go in these live chats you do is you go in these live chats you do is you go in these live chats where 30 40 50 100 people are in. If where 30 40 50 100 people are in. If where 30 40 50 100 people are in. If you're really famous, there's thousands you're really famous, there's thousands you're really famous, there's thousands of people in there. But if even if of people in there.

And then what you do, every there. And then what you do, every there. And then what you do, every person that wants to be a part of the person that wants to be a part of the person that wants to be a part of the auction and that wants in to watch me auction and that wants in to watch me auction and that wants in to watch me open the cards, watch me open, you you open the cards, watch me open, you you open the cards, watch me open, you you Annie up 20 bucks or 25 bucks and 25 Annie up 20 bucks or 25 bucks and 25 Annie up 20 bucks or 25 bucks and 25 bucks you randomly spend a thing and bucks you randomly spend a thing and bucks you randomly spend a thing and then you get a team out of the so then you get a team out of the so then you get a team out of the so there's 30 teams you get one of the there's 30 teams you get one of the there's 30 teams you get one of the teams and that's my team. So I pay teams and that's my team. So I pay teams and that's my team. So I pay basically I pay 20 bucks and any card basically I pay 20 bucks and any card basically I pay 20 bucks and any card that I open up that's that team you get that I open up that's that team you get that I open up that's that team you get that I ship it to you.

And worth more, the auction will go up. And worth more, the auction will go up. And so it's like so it's like so it's like >> and you and you launch. So now now here >> and you and you launch. So now now here >> and you and you launch. So now now here do the math real quick. Okay. So a box do the math real quick. Okay. So a box do the math real quick. Okay. So a box costs about 150 170 bucks for this. You costs about 150 170 bucks for this. You costs about 150 170 bucks for this. You get 30 people in there. get 30 people in there. get 30 people in there. >> Each person pays $20 just to get a team. >> Each person pays $20 just to get a team. >> Each person pays $20 just to get a team. Not only that, but even if because Not only that, but even if because Not only that, but even if because there's the chance that all these cars there's the chance that all these cars there's the chance that all these cars get distributed and your team never even get distributed and your team never even get distributed and your team never even comes up, you have everybody that comes up, you have everybody that comes up, you have everybody that Annie's in is a $4.95 shipping fee that Annie's in is a $4.95 shipping fee that Annie's in is a $4.95 shipping fee that you have to pay because that guy's going you have to pay because that guy's going you have to pay because that guy's going to ship you all those things and you you to ship you all those things and you you to ship you all those things and you you lose that no matter what whether you get lose that no matter what whether you get lose that no matter what whether you get a thing or not. So everybody gets not a thing or not. So everybody gets not a thing or not. So everybody gets not nailed for $5 guaranteed. So they have nailed for $5 guaranteed. So they have nailed for $5 guaranteed. So they have five times 30 that's 150. Your cost for five times 30 that's 150. Your cost for five times 30 that's 150. Your cost for the box is already done. It's done. And the box is already done. It's done. And the box is already done. It's done. And then everybody pays $20 for a team. then everybody pays $20 for a team. then everybody pays $20 for a team. You're you're positive. Yeah. You're you're positive. Yeah. You're you're positive. Yeah. >> So, they're they're let me guess. >> So, they're they're let me guess. >> So, they're they're let me guess.

I'm surprised I haven't run out of out. I'm surprised I haven't run out of out. I'm surprised I haven't run out of stuff to say honestly. Um, but stuff to say honestly. Um, but stuff to say honestly. Um, but >> kidding. We have s >> kidding. We have s >> kidding. We have s >> I got unlisted. I'm just going to go >> I got unlisted. I'm just going to go >> I got unlisted. I'm just going to go ahead and read um my question so I don't ahead and read um my question so I don't ahead and read um my question so I don't miss any main points. Um so I've been miss any main points. Um so I've been miss any main points. Um so I've been lifting consistently and focusing on lifting consistently and focusing on lifting consistently and focusing on progressive overload. My strength's been progressive overload. My strength's been progressive overload. My strength's been going up. I feel smaller overall, but going up. I feel smaller overall, but going up. I feel smaller overall, but it's like I've kept my same shape and it's like I've kept my same shape and it's like I've kept my same shape and just kind of like shrunk. So I think just kind of like shrunk. So I think just kind of like shrunk. So I think that I'm recmping. I can see more muscle that I'm recmping. I can see more muscle that I'm recmping. I can see more muscle definition when I flex, but at rest I'm definition when I flex, but at rest I'm definition when I flex, but at rest I'm still like a little bit softer than I still like a little bit softer than I still like a little bit softer than I expected. Um, I generally center my expected. Um, I generally center my expected. Um, I generally center my meals around protein, but I don't track meals around protein, but I don't track meals around protein, but I don't track strict macros. And my consistency does strict macros. And my consistency does strict macros. And my consistency does kind of vary week to week. Um, outside kind of vary week to week. Um, outside kind of vary week to week. Um, outside of lifting and like working out, I'm of lifting and like working out, I'm of lifting and like working out, I'm fairly sedentary. I do work from home. fairly sedentary. I do work from home. fairly sedentary. I do work from home. Um, and so I'm just kind of wondering, Um, and so I'm just kind of wondering, Um, and so I'm just kind of wondering, um, the feeling that I'm feeling is um, the feeling that I'm feeling is um, the feeling that I'm feeling is almost like I'm super strong, but then almost like I'm super strong, but then almost like I'm super strong, but then there's like a outside layer of me. So, there's like a outside layer of me. So, there's like a outside layer of me. So, I'm just wondering if that's a normal I'm just wondering if that's a normal I'm just wondering if that's a normal feeling during the body recomposition feeling during the body recomposition feeling during the body recomposition phase or if I just need to adjust phase or if I just need to adjust phase or if I just need to adjust something like calorie intake, do like a something like calorie intake, do like a something like calorie intake, do like a mini cut, or maybe just like tighten up mini cut, or maybe just like tighten up mini cut, or maybe just like tighten up nutrition or maybe even just move a nutrition or maybe even just move a nutrition or maybe even just move a little bit more. little bit more. little bit more. >> Yes, that's very normal. Uh, do we have >> Yes, that's very normal. Uh, do we have >> Yes, that's very normal. Uh, do we have any more information as far as steps, any more information as far as steps, any more information as far as steps, calories? Are we tracking anything? I calories? Are we tracking anything? I calories? Are we tracking anything? I did track out of curio curiosity the did track out of curio curiosity the did track out of curio curiosity the other week and I'd say I'm around like other week and I'd say I'm around like other week and I'd say I'm around like 18 19 calories for the week. Um I will 18 19 calories for the week. Um I will 18 19 calories for the week. Um I will say I did notice whenever I did track my say I did notice whenever I did track my say I did notice whenever I did track my protein is kind of wonky some days. protein is kind of wonky some days. protein is kind of wonky some days. >> Yeah. >> Yeah. >> Yeah. >> And I kind of lead with carbs. >> And I kind of lead with carbs. >> And I kind of lead with carbs. >> Yeah. >> Yeah. >> Yeah. >> Um outside of that like stress is pretty >> Um outside of that like stress is pretty >> Um outside of that like stress is pretty high. I do try to high. I do try to high. I do try to prioritize my sleep because that right prioritize my sleep because that right prioritize my sleep because that right there is kind of crazy, too. Um, and for there is kind of crazy, too. Um, and for there is kind of crazy, too. Um, and for steps, if I'm getting out, like I try to steps, if I'm getting out, like I try to steps, if I'm getting out, like I try to do a walk at lunch. Um, but with my do a walk at lunch. Um, but with my do a walk at lunch. Um, but with my schedule, it's honestly so busy and schedule, it's honestly so busy and schedule, it's honestly so busy and stressful. So, I'd say like maybe stressful. So, I'd say like maybe stressful. So, I'd say like maybe average like 5k steps. average like 5k steps. average like 5k steps. >> So, there's a there's a theme that's >> So, there's a there's a theme that's >> So, there's a there's a theme that's that's coming across with this. So, that's coming across with this. So, that's coming across with this. So, first off, it is normal to question uh first off, it is normal to question uh first off, it is normal to question uh you know how well you're progressing you know how well you're progressing you know how well you're progressing when you're on a fitness journey. when you're on a fitness journey. when you're on a fitness journey. Actually, I want to know how long have Actually, I want to know how long have Actually, I want to know how long have you been doing this? you been doing this? you been doing this? >> I'd say um consistently. I've I've been >> I'd say um consistently. I've I've been >> I'd say um consistently. I've I've been at athletic like my whole life. Um but I at athletic like my whole life. Um but I at athletic like my whole life. Um but I did dial things up. I'd say within the did dial things up. I'd say within the did dial things up. I'd say within the last two years, I was I'm 5'7. I was last two years, I was I'm 5'7. I was last two years, I was I'm 5'7. I was 195, a good amount of body fat on me. 195, a good amount of body fat on me. 195, a good amount of body fat on me. And then now I'm uh 175. And I did lose And then now I'm uh 175. And I did lose And then now I'm uh 175. And I did lose some body fat there. So I from the past some body fat there. So I from the past some body fat there. So I from the past few years I can definitely see a few years I can definitely see a few years I can definitely see a difference in like pictures um the way difference in like pictures um the way difference in like pictures um the way clothes fit stuff like that. clothes fit stuff like that. clothes fit stuff like that. >> Good. So it sounds like you've been >> Good. So it sounds like you've been >> Good. So it sounds like you've been progressing. The theme the theme that I progressing. The theme the theme that I progressing. The theme the theme that I keep hearing is consistency. keep hearing is consistency. keep hearing is consistency. >> Okay. >> Okay. >> Okay. >> So it sounds to me and correct me if I'm >> So it sounds to me and correct me if I'm >> So it sounds to me and correct me if I'm wrong that you'll have like consistent wrong that you'll have like consistent wrong that you'll have like consistent stretches and then less consistent stretches and then less consistent stretches and then less consistent stretches both with diet and exercise uh stretches both with diet and exercise uh stretches both with diet and exercise uh and activity and even maybe stress and activity and even maybe stress and activity and even maybe stress management. So, I think with someone management. So, I think with someone management. So, I think with someone like you, just because that sounds like like you, just because that sounds like like you, just because that sounds like that's the theme, that's the theme, that's the theme, >> is to focus on consistency one step at a >> is to focus on consistency one step at a >> is to focus on consistency one step at a time, time, time, >> not all at once. In other words, uh we >> not all at once. In other words, uh we >> not all at once. In other words, uh we don't want to do because this is kind of don't want to do because this is kind of don't want to do because this is kind of a failing strategy a failing strategy a failing strategy >> is to be like I'm okay, I'm going to be >> is to be like I'm okay, I'm going to be >> is to be like I'm okay, I'm going to be consistent with everything and then and consistent with everything and then and consistent with everything and then and then you end up falling off. then you end up falling off. then you end up falling off. >> It's the protein. >> It's the protein. >> It's the protein. >> So, let's pick one thing >> So, let's pick one thing >> So, let's pick one thing >> and say, okay, >> and say, okay, >> and say, okay, >> everything else is going to be the way >> everything else is going to be the way >> everything else is going to be the way it's been, but this one thing I'm going it's been, but this one thing I'm going it's been, but this one thing I'm going to be ultra consistent with.

It could be steps. It could be your workouts. It could be could be your workouts. It could be could be your workouts. It could be hitting your protein targets or avoiding hitting your protein targets or avoiding hitting your protein targets or avoiding heavily processed food. heavily processed food. heavily processed food. >> Pick that one thing and be very >> Pick that one thing and be very >> Pick that one thing and be very consistent. Once it feels uh habitual, consistent. Once it feels uh habitual, consistent. Once it feels uh habitual, like it's not like something you need to like it's not like something you need to like it's not like something you need to focus on anymore, then add one more focus on anymore, then add one more focus on anymore, then add one more thing. And that's the key to to to thing. And that's the key to to to thing. And that's the key to to to long-term consistency. long-term consistency. long-term consistency. >> If you let me choose, I'd say protein. >> If you let me choose, I'd say protein. >> If you let me choose, I'd say protein. >> I think protein will naturally keep your >> I think protein will naturally keep your >> I think protein will naturally keep your calories in check. So, there's also not calories in check. So, there's also not calories in check. So, there's also not an inconsistency around the fluctuation an inconsistency around the fluctuation an inconsistency around the fluctuation of the down. It's also going to serve of the down. It's also going to serve of the down. It's also going to serve you if you're being if you're lifting, you if you're being if you're lifting, you if you're being if you're lifting, even if you're not the most consistent even if you're not the most consistent even if you're not the most consistent lifter, but you lift, you know, some lifter, but you lift, you know, some lifter, but you lift, you know, some weeks you hit three or four times, other weeks you hit three or four times, other weeks you hit three or four times, other weeks you hit one or two, but you're weeks you hit one or two, but you're weeks you hit one or two, but you're consistently lifting overall and hitting consistently lifting overall and hitting consistently lifting overall and hitting your protein intake, you'll see muscle your protein intake, you'll see muscle your protein intake, you'll see muscle building benefits from that. building benefits from that. building benefits from that. >> The the the three the three places we >> The the the three the three places we >> The the the three the three places we could look is one is where Adam said, could look is one is where Adam said, could look is one is where Adam said, uh, hit your protein targets, eat it uh, hit your protein targets, eat it uh, hit your protein targets, eat it first. Another one would be to first. Another one would be to first.

Based off of what I'm hearing, I would prefer like a max anabolic and would prefer like a max anabolic and would prefer like a max anabolic and even if she doesn't get all three days even if she doesn't get all three days even if she doesn't get all three days and she only did two days of full body and she only did two days of full body and she only did two days of full body working out. working out. working out. >> Does that work better for you? >> Does that work better for you? >> Does that work better for you? >> Like that's only three days a week >> Like that's only three days a week >> Like that's only three days a week lifting. Okay. lifting. Okay. lifting. Okay. >> Or two. >> Or two. >> Or two. >> And even if you do only do two the way >> And even if you do only do two the way >> And even if you do only do two the way it's designed, it's full body. So it's it's designed, it's full body. So it's it's designed, it's full body. So it's not like you're missing anything, right? not like you're missing anything, right? not like you're missing anything, right? So it's like you could literally oh only So it's like you could literally oh only So it's like you could literally oh only got two days that week, but you got two got two days that week, but you got two got two days that week, but you got two two full body of anabolic with hitting two full body of anabolic with hitting two full body of anabolic with hitting your protein intake. your protein intake. your protein intake. >> I I feel confident we're going to see >> I I feel confident we're going to see >> I I feel confident we're going to see good progress from that. And then good good progress from that. And then good good progress from that. And then good weeks you're hitting it all three days a weeks you're hitting it all three days a weeks you're hitting it all three days a week. week. week. >> Okay. So if I start there and I do let's >> Okay. So if I start there and I do let's >> Okay. So if I start there and I do let's just say if I get in the time I'm in the just say if I get in the time I'm in the just say if I get in the time I'm in the gym two days a week. Yep. gym two days a week. Yep. gym two days a week. Yep. >> And like what's if I want to just like >> And like what's if I want to just like >> And like what's if I want to just like go walk you know for my mental health go walk you know for my mental health go walk you know for my mental health after work. after work. after work. >> That's right. Yes. >> That's right. Yes. >> That's right. Yes. >> The movement I can do that. >> The movement I can do that. >> The movement I can do that. >> Oh yeah. Oh yeah. >> Oh yeah. Oh yeah. >> Oh yeah. Oh yeah. >> Walk as much as you want. >> Walk as much as you want. >> Walk as much as you want. >> Yeah. I think to Sal's point is I listen >> Yeah. I think to Sal's point is I listen >> Yeah. I think to Sal's point is I listen if you start walking more too that's if you start walking more too that's if you start walking more too that's great but it's like the main thing right great but it's like the main thing right great but it's like the main thing right now of everything we're do we're going now of everything we're do we're going now of everything we're do we're going to give you anabolic. So you have that to give you anabolic. So you have that to give you anabolic. So you have that that's what you follow. The goal is to that's what you follow. The goal is to that's what you follow. The goal is to get there two or three times a week. get there two or three times a week. get there two or three times a week. Okay. But if if you fall short of that, Okay. But if if you fall short of that, Okay. But if if you fall short of that, as long as you get in there for the as long as you get in there for the as long as you get in there for the week, I think you're going to be okay. week, I think you're going to be okay. week, I think you're going to be okay. We're going to be fine there. But really We're going to be fine there. But really We're going to be fine there. But really focus on the protein. Like let like like focus on the protein. Like let like like focus on the protein. Like let like like let that be the the cornerstone of I'm let that be the the cornerstone of I'm let that be the the cornerstone of I'm going to be cons. I'm never going to going to be cons. I'm never going to going to be cons. I'm never going to miss 150. You know, I'm going to hit 150 miss 150. You know, I'm going to hit 150 miss 150. You know, I'm going to hit 150 all time. Focusing on that will manage all time. Focusing on that will manage all time. Focusing on that will manage the calories really nice and put you the calories really nice and put you the calories really nice and put you where you're supposed to be. Even if you where you're supposed to be. Even if you where you're supposed to be. Even if you only hit anabolic once or twice a week, only hit anabolic once or twice a week, only hit anabolic once or twice a week, you're going to build muscle on that. you're going to build muscle on that. you're going to build muscle on that. That's going to positively move you. And That's going to positively move you. And That's going to positively move you. And then, hey, if you also got time to do then, hey, if you also got time to do then, hey, if you also got time to do more steps, that would be great. Like more steps, that would be great. Like more steps, that would be great. Like that's kind of the thought process. But that's kind of the thought process. But that's kind of the thought process. But focus on the protein first and that focus on the protein first and that focus on the protein first and that becomes the first thing that you don't becomes the first thing that you don't becomes the first thing that you don't miss. miss. miss. >> Okay, cool. That simplifies helps. >> Okay, cool. That simplifies helps. >> Okay, cool. That simplifies helps. >> All right. Well, you'll send that over. >> All right. Well, you'll send that over. >> All right.
