General Bulking Observations
So I'm really just posting this in the hopes that it helps people who are interesting in a mass gaining phase for purposes of improving muscle mass and body composition. I would exclude people looking to gain weight for clinically underweight/health related concerns and that's an important distinction to make if you're in…

General Q and A thread
So I totally get that some people might be like "who the F are you and why do I care what you think?" And I get it! I've seen threads like this totally backfire when someone new comes along and does this. So with that said, go ahead and troll me if you'd like. Or, feel free to drop any questions here and I'll take a crack…

Podcasts
Hey! I've been on a few podcasts and I just wanted to share in case anyone is interested in that sort of thing. I was on Jay Scott's full disclosure fitness podcast several months ago but he took a hiatus before publishing it. It was just posted a few days ago and you can find it here:…

Hey! I've been on a few podcasts and I just wanted to share in case anyone is interested in that sort of thing. I'll make the assumption that it's not against any terms of service by linking these here. If so, my bad, mods!

Eat, Train, Progress GROUP!
Hey! In addition to my facebook page, I've just now (finally!) created a public facebook GROUP under the same name. I expect it to grow and become a good place for no-nonsense information exchange.

Taking video
This is one of those points that will only be relevant for a chunk of people but it's worth mentioning: Those of you who regularly squat and bench and deadlift, who have at least some idea about proper lifting mechanics, and ESPECIALLY those of you who either compete in powerlifting or you are going to compete in…

Father's Day Q&A
So first of all I know that these threads can get fairly aggressive anytime someone comes in here like "Hey got any questions? I'll answer them for you!" Because usually people are like "who the f are you and why do I care what YOU think?" And that's fair. But anyway, I'm a former personal trainer (NASM, lapsed in 2016 --…

Prioritization
Copying this from my facebook fitness page because I think it's an important and quick message. This will be obvious to some of you but my experience is that people can understand this conceptually yet still fail to implement it. So what I'm getting at is, even if you're scrolling past this thinking "well, duh", you may…

Client Progress -- Kate
The following is a testimonial from my client Kate. I'm sharing this for a few reasons. Obviously one reason is that I coach people for a living and so showing off their progress serves as a way to demonstrate my coaching. But lets be real for a minute -- I'm seriously PROUD of Kate and it makes me feel good to see clients…
