This week we talk about my favorite subject: programming. Gyms have evolved in the last 20 years and programming has had to evolve with that change.

This is a great one for anyone who wants to understand the method and meaning behind their training and where it fits in the context of training history. Enjoy, like, share and all the good stuff!

Welcome back to the rewind podcast series, going back over our favorite podcasts over the years. This podcast is on what I call high-performance hypertrophy. This came about from my love of bodybuilding and CrossFit, wanting to get the best of both worlds, build muscle, look good, feel good, and still feel capable and athletic while still focusing on some aesthetic stuff. So I basically combined a lot of bodybuilding exercises with a lot of CrossFit-type exercises, and it basically evolved into something called high-performance hypertrophy. And a lot of the programs that I write, especially for Build fall into this category.

This program is now available to all those on the Limitless Challenge. We cover why it exists, who it’s for, what it requires, and what can be expected from it. It’s a tough program for tough people ... are you ready for it?

There has been a conflict raging since the dawn of time (we at least a few years) … Crossfit vs Bodybuilding: Who wins? I’ve spent a good amount of time in both, I have friends who are devoted to both at the extremes of the sport. I ponder the questions in this week's podcast; the differences, the benefits, the limits, and the results … I’ve spent a good amount of time in both, I have friends who are devoted to both at the extremes of the sport.
