 I love testing out and trying new approaches and seeing how my body responds to different protocols. Last year I had some really good success with a full build approach (aka calorie surplus for an extended period). This year I want to see how my body will personally respond to a 3 month body-recomp approach (trying to get just a little bit of muscle, while losing a little bit of body fat at the same time). Although I do believe, and research has shown, that a trained lifter wont get as much muscle gains during a body recomp approach, and that it's a lot harder as your training age goes up, I want to test the waters and see how much I can and how my body personally will respond to this approach.

As my knowledge of optimizing training, nutrition, and recovery has gone up, and as i've learned to work smart in the gym, i'm going to see if these things will help me edge out some more muscle gains during this next 3 month body-recomp approach. 

In this podcast I talk about...

  • how to set up a body-recomp approach for a trained lifter
  • how to manipulate nutrition or added cardio 
  • How we can really use flexible nutrition approaches
  • What i'm looking for and how I will manipulate things as time goes on

I have no expectations other than to watch and see how my body will respond.
