In this episode, Tom and I dive into the third pillar of Kinobody: minimalist training. The fact of the matter is - doing less in the gym leads to greater results. Most are surprised when they see YouTube videos of me hitting insane amounts of weight on different exercises only to learn I lift no more than 3 times per week. When you can strip away the unessential and hone your attention to what matters most (getting stronger), you can see incredible results. Everyone who switches from lifting 5 to 6 days a week with a laundry list of exercises to just 3 days of focusing on what I call the "key lifts" see amazing progress. In this episode: 1:00 - Insane results from Minimalist Training 3:31 - The main goal of training 4:25 - The importance of strength training for fat loss 7:05 - Progressive overload and training for muscle growth 10:45 - Secrets to looking lean and chiseled revealed 11:57 - The freedom of minimalist training 14:07 Minimalist training specifics (the "nuts and bolts") Thank You For Listening!
