In this episode, I sit down with American Top Team Head Strength and Conditioning Coach Phil Daru. Phil has worked with multiple world champions as a strength coach for fighters such as Joanna Jedrzejczyk, King Mo Lawal, Tecia Torres, Dustin Poirier, Amanda Nunes, all at the world famous American Top Team. One of the major talking points on the show was how to balance the Strength and Conditioning of fighters with the different demands MMA training presents - striking, wrestling, Jiu-Jitsu, etc. Sit back, relax, and enjoy!

In this episode, I talk about 7 reasons why you are not losing weight or fat. For most people, it's not a lack of information that is holding them back the most. On the surface level, most people know how to 'diet". It's the little things that create the most problems - a sedentary lifestyle, untracked eating, not navigating restaurants and celebrations correctly, lack of patience, and more. This is a long one so sit back, relax and enjoy!

In this episode, I sit down with fellow Dad and fitness coach, Brian Minor. This episode is a little different. We wanted to touch on a topic not talked about much - parenting from the father's perspective. How has being a parent changed the way we train, run our companies, and manage time? Look, even if you are not a parent (yet) this episode can be valuable. Living life with more purpose and getting better at time management are two things almost everyone can improve on.

In this episode, I sit down with USAPL Coaching Chairman Matt Gary. This is Matt's second appearance on the show. We started off this episode talking about the controversy surrounding 2018 USAPL Raw Nationals. Matt helped dispel some of the inaccurate rumors being floated around the internet. We also talked about the challenges of running a powerlifting/performance based gym. Matt and his wife, Sioux-z Hartwig-Gary, established Supreme Sports Performance & Training, Inc. (SSPT) in 2008. SSPT has since grown into Washington, DC and suburban Maryland’s premier strength training facility. Lastly, we dug into the concept of minimalism and how Matt has used it to live a more intentional and meaningful life. Sit back, relax, and enjoy!

Aug 31, 2018

In this episode, I answer questions mostly surrounding building muscle and getting jacked! Sit back, relax and enjoy!

 

Hire Kyle as your coach: http://www.kylehuntfitness.com/services/

 

Questions on the show:

Q1- Hi Kyle, I started lifting weights a couple years ago but honestly I just started making progress about 6 months ago when I bought your Absolute Strength Program. My question is, if I am following your Absolute Strength Program, what is the best way to go about my nutrition to make sure I continue gaining muscle and strength? For context, I am 6ft tall and weight 165lbs.

Q2 - I seem to get mixed opinions on this depending on who I ask, and imagine some other lifters might too: The idea of direct ab work.

So, ab work in general (probably especially the types where you're not purposely causing too much lumbar flexion, extension, and torsion) like planks, ab-wheel rollouts, roman chair leg lifts and such - are they really beneficial to a lifter from the perspective of helping you become a better lifter?  I mean, I get the structural benefits of having strong abs to support your lower back but can ab work actually help put lbs onto your total? 

Q3 – I understand hypertrophy is very important to getting stronger. Are there any benefits to spending a large portion of time in a powerlifting offseason focusing almost entirely on hypertrophy/bodybuilding training with maybe only one top set per week between 1-5 reps for Squat, Bench, and Deadlift?

Q4: What are the best foods to eat if you struggle to take in enough calories during a weight gaining cycle? Keep in mind, I’m a college kid with limited funds.

Q5: What are your favorite exercises for each muscle group with the purpose of building muscle?

Q6: What is the purpose behind all your #consistency posts on Instagram?
