Ep. #1170: Q&A: Fasted Training for Muscle Growth, Aggressive Dieting, Leg Day


Listen Later

In this episode, I discuss the benefits of fasted training for muscle growth, the pros and cons of aggressive dieting, optimal leg day frequency, and lots more.


As always, these questions come directly from my Instagram followers, who take advantage of my weekly Q&As in my stories.


If you have a question you're dying to have answered, make sure you follow me on Instagram (@muscleforlifefitness) and look out for the Q&A posts. Your question might just make it into a podcast episode!
