Summary

Today's solocast is on a topic that I have studied, tested, and perfected for over 20 years: Training for Hypertrophy. I've compiled 10 of the most effective (and often under-utilized) practices that are guaranteed to help you build the MOST muscle possible, and sustain it for life.

  • The GREATEST Opportunity for Progress for Every Body Part.
  • How to Get the Most Out of As Few Exercises as Possible.
  • Why Most People Train Mobility Incorrectly (& How to Do it Right).
  • The #1 Thing You Can do Right Now to Prevent Injuries.

I also summarized these 10 big levers into an easy-to-reference PDF guide, which also includes links to additional resources. Pick up your copy now by clicking here.
