Is workout nutrition still worth obsessing over? For a while, it was treated like gospel—pre-workout meals, intra carbs, post-workout shakes. Then the research shifted focus toward total daily intake, and the hype died down. But maybe we were too quick to move on. In this solo episode, I dig into what to eat before, during, and after training to support muscle growth, performance, and recovery. I also share why, despite the lack of strong research, my 15+ years of coaching experience tell me that getting peri-workout nutrition right is still one of the easiest wins. Sit back, relax, and enjoy!

In this episode, Derek and I tackle some big-picture questions that every lifter thinks about—starting with the only 10 exercises we’d pick if we had to train with them for life. We also talk about how to know when it’s time to switch programs (or stick with the one you’re on), the one nutrition rule we wish everyone would follow forever, and whether chasing strength can hurt muscle growth. Plus, we dig into finding the point of diminishing returns with training volume and which athlete we’d pick to train with for a week. Sit back, relax, and enjoy!
