In this episode, the topic of discussion is the effectiveness of using a bodybuilding routine for general fitness and the most important variables to track for efficient results in the gym. 

When discussing general fitness, first we need to define what that means. Of course, it will be different for everyone, but to me, it comes down to four qualities: body composition, strength, cardiovascular health, and longevity. Is bodybuilding the best method for developing those four qualities? What about other fitness modalities, is there a better way? 

We have all heard the expression "what gets measured, gets managed," but when it comes to fitness, what should we measure? 

Sit back, relax, and enjoy!

Questions on the show:

  1. What are your thoughts on German Volume Training? Can it be used as part of a bodybuilding style program?
  2. Hey Kyle, I am having trouble bracing for squats and deadlifts, what are your favorite coaching cues to help clients improve at this?
  3. How do you build a thick neck like a wrestler?
  4. Are there any benefits to incorporating speed/power training for raw powerlifters?
  5. If someone trains late in the afternoon is there a “minimum effective dose” of caffeine that will allow you to still see some benefits without negatively impacting sleep?
  6. Hey Kyle, I’m confused about how and when you should deload in a training cycle? Can you talk about this on an upcoming podcast episode?
