Grow or Die

Today we welcome special guest, three time Olympian and Women's Physique Pro Jamie Pinder! We open up our conversation learning about how Jamie started as a bikini competitor and how she transitioned into an IFBB women's physique pro. Then we dive into Jamie's introduction and experience with PEDs and the psychology behind why people start a cycle. We discuss what PED abuse means and what to look out for. Jamie then outlines what questions you should be asking your coach as well as how to find a good coach that will lead you in the right direction when it comes to anabolics. Then we close discussing the importance of blood work, having a healthy relationship with PEDs and why you should always post cycle.

At the end of this podcast Jamie offers our listeners a discount on her newest course, ABC Primer to PEDs, which will intro you to better understanding PEDs and when/if you should consider them.

We open up today's episode talking about #TEAMMIHALY Athlete Anna Kate, AKA AK-47's overall win in St. Louis this weekend. Then we dive into today's topic of training considerations. We touch on five key points to consider for your training session. 1 - Why absolute effort trumps all. 2 - Focus on the core lifts. Become an expert with a barbell and keep machines secondary. 3 - Vary your rep ranges based on your lifts for optimal performance. 4 - Focus on total poundage moved and not total reps. Volume is not the answer here. 5 - Focus on your setup and mechanical positioning. We cannot break form and expect the target muscle to grow and recovery optimally.
