Eat Train Prosper

This week we have guest Geoffrey Verity Schofield who joins us to talk about his experiences getting very very lean recently, and how he found self-confidence in going against the grain. We also dive into getting into the YouTube game (with 100k plus subs) spending 12 years living in China as a westerner, and some of his personal insights from building an incredibly impressive natural physique in only 8 years. A very cool episode from a very cool guest.

In today’s episode we share some of the recent news, presiding thoughts and general questions that have been top of mind lately. Of course mostly through the lens of resistance training, cardio, and nutrition. But also, some more theoretical observations about impressionable moments, and impacting personal experiences.

Very recently, a preprint publication titled “​​Exploring the Dose-Response Relationship Between Estimated Resistance Training Proximity to Failure, Strength Gain, and Muscle Hypertrophy: A Series of Meta-Regressions” was released that demonstrated some interesting (aka vindicating) information around training to failure for hypertrophy. In this episode we provide our thoughts and practical applications on some of our early interpretations.

In episode 114 we have our monthly Instagram Q&A, where we answer a variety of questions from our audience. This month we begin with 5 questions about long muscle lengths / stretch-mediated hypertrophy. After these, we discuss whether leg curls can sufficiently train hamstrings without hip hinges, whether we would ever do a marathon, getting sick mid meso, dropsets on lateral raises, ridding ourselves of chronic injuries, training frequency relevance for each muscle group, and a few others. Thanks for listening!

How do we approach setting goals for a mesocycle? Especially when focused on hypertrophy as the goal outcome and not a particular 1 rep max.

After 6 long months of training arms (biceps / triceps) on his left arm ONLY, Bryan shares with us the results of his pre and post testing. A strength test comparing left arm strength (the arm that was trained) to right arm (no training for 6 months), arm circumference measurements, and also DEXA scan results that produced peculiar findings. Then we shift the conversation into methods for quantifying weekly volume, our recommended approaches, how the prevailing volume suggestion research quantified volume, and pose the question whether quantifying volume at all is even necessary.

This week we have our friend Brandon DaCruz back on the podcast and our topic is  healthspan. Brandon helps us cover 3 leftover questions from last week’s Q&A episode. We talk Brandon’s dive into being fully self-employed after 14 years spent in the corporate supplement industry. Then we settle into our conversation around concurrent training, and Brandon helps us navigate the literature on how you can have the best of both worlds whilst aging.
