Episode 110 - Muscle Talk 3 With Funk and Flex - Reverse Pyramid Training
Building muscle is one of the things we struggle with as we get older. This happens because we start to suffer from sarcopenia, the natural muscle loss due to aging. So if we are not consistently in the gym (or at home) engaging in resistance training or building muscle, we will lose our muscles even faster.
Unfortunately, the loss of muscle leads to many illnesses and ailments. Some of them are decreased bone density, elevated risk of falls, and slower recovery times. We need to know how to build muscle the right way, which is why I created Muscle Talks and invited coach Flex Marks to this section of the podcast.
Coach Flex Marks really brings a different perspective and out-of-the-box training. When he trains people, he gets them results.
In this episode, Flex explains his reverse pyramid training, also known as 5/4/3/2/1 training. IT BLEW ME AWAY when I first heard about it in one of our private Facebook groups. And he’s breaking it down for you today.
Get ready to understand the philosophy, principles, and programming behind this shocking training. Flex gives you tips and tricks to start implementing it immediately.
Take control of your destiny, one muscle at a time. Tune in now and embrace the extraordinary possibilities that lie ahead!
“I’m allowing them to think for themselves a little bit as to what workouts they wanna put in the 5/4/3/2/1.”
