Podcast 022 selecting a good workout program and the myth of constantly varied

If you can’t do Thrivestry, what sort of things should you be thinking about when selecting a program or if you are creating your own programming, what are some of the ‘big rocks’ you should be paying attention to? The importance of constant improvement. Why you need to repeat workouts? Why is programmed skill work so critical? Should you be doing ‘random’ workouts?

Podcast 021 Season 2, say no to bad workouts, will lifting weights make you bulky

Podcast 021 Season 2, say no to bad workouts, will lifting weights make you bulky

Season 2 is here! We are changing the format a bit for this season. We are going to be talking more about workout programming and going over the prevailing 'myths' we see regularly in the fitness/exercise world. Today we talk about 'bad' workouts, how to spot them, what are the red flags for bad workouts, and what should you do when you visit a gym (or a friend recruits you) and you have to decide how to approach a bad workout. We also talk about the myth "lifting weights will make me bulky". What it takes to actually build muscle and why you shouldn't be worried about bulking up if that isn't your goal!

But it is still a great episode, I swear!
