The Kyle Hunt Show

In this episode, I break down the five habits I use to stay lean year-round without constantly going through bulking and cutting phases. The truth is, staying in shape doesn't require extreme dieting, complicated nutrition plans, or living in the gym. It's about building a lifestyle that makes being lean the default. I cover why I prioritize eating around 1 gram of protein per pound of body weight, averaging 10,000 steps per day, keeping my nutrition simple, lifting weights consistently, and why I no longer intentionally bulk or cut. If your goal is to build muscle, stay lean, and look and perform your best year-round, this episode is for you.

After a couple of months away from the podcast, I'm back behind the mic for a listener Q&A. In this episode, I talk about why I took a break, what I've been up to, and what's next for the podcast. I also answer questions on my return to BJJ, how my training has changed, getting great workouts in when you're short on time, and what parents can do to help maximize their kids' athletic potential without becoming overbearing sports parents. Plus, I share my thoughts on the UFC White House card and a few other topics along the way. Questions on the show: Q1: Hey Kyle, I really miss the podcast. Where have you been? I keep checking my feed, hoping for a new episode. Is the podcast done for good, or are you planning to bring it back? Q2: On one of the last podcast episodes, you mentioned getting back into BJJ. How has that changed the way you're training these days? Have you had to adjust your lifting, conditioning, or recovery? Q3: Hey Kyle, my life is busy right now, and most days I only have about 30 minutes to train. If you were in my shoes, how would you structure those workouts to get the best results possible? Q4: I recently reread your article on Long-Term Athletic Development. I don't want to be one of those over-the-top sports parents, but I do have a 10-year-old son, and I want to help him reach his potential. If you could give one or two pieces of advice to parents, what would they be? Q5: Did you watch the UFC card at the White House? If so, what did you think of the fights?

In this episode, I'm joined by Nick Smoot to revisit several classic topics pulled from old articles he wrote on my website.

We talk about whether static stretching is actually overrated, why progression still matters most for results, why not everyone needs to track their food, and how to think about cardio for fat loss.

In this Q&A, Derek and I break down how to stay strong and in shape without living in the gym. We talk about what to prioritize when time is limited, how to rebuild your relationship with training when it starts to feel like a job, and how to adjust your standards as life gets fuller without feeling like you've quit on yourself.

In this episode, I'm joined by Charlie Dickson to dig into his powerlifting journey through repeated injuries and the long road back from them. We talk about how he rehabbed and rebuilt his body, the prehab and training decisions he uses now to stay healthy, and what it was like to confront his identity when powerlifting had to take a back seat. If you've ever been sidelined by injury or forced to rethink who you are without the barbell front and center, this conversation will resonate.

In this episode, I sit down with Martha Salaya and dig into her shift from powerlifting to the wellness bodybuilding division. We talk about why she stepped away from chasing numbers, how she rebuilt her training and mindset for a sport that demands a completely different approach, and what it's like to evolve as an athlete after years in one lane. If you're in a season of change or rethinking your own goals, you'll get a lot from this one.
