Can you group all the finishers in one section called finishers?

I am wanting to spread that knowledge via a 6-MONTH gift subscription to my bro-in-law, anyway to process such request. Thank you again for everything!

After dieting down to single digit body fat, what is the best approach to transition into a bulk? Would it be best to reverse diet from where your deficit calories were? Or go right into surplus? I tend to gain body fat pretty easy any time I try to bulk.

What would you do nutrition or recovery wise for muscle cramps and muscle spasms?
Typically following a brutal leg day and sometimes push pulls my body parts lock up or spasm. Currently in a cut phase. I train early in the morning (5a.m) so I don’t eat before my workouts. I drink plenty of water and consume bulk of my carbs intra and post (~160g).

Following up on your workout structure Video:
Would you count rest pause sets (used if you don’t have a training partner) as metabolic work, or still part of MT sets?
For example: if I have a pull day starting with an upper back t bar row, moving into a chest supported lat row and finally into a lat Pulldown, could I do rest pause sets on the rows, which are tougher to get short, or is it better to do something else metabolic after the Pulldowns, because I feel the rest pause sets of rows take away from the Pulldowns a fair bit.

Next, specifically for dips, do you feel that pressing into bands is bad for your joints? I personally don’t have any pain or problems with it (yet) but have heard that pressing into bands is bound to bring about joint issues. I’m struggling to find a good REVERSE banded dip set up and was wondering if you’ve found any good ways over the years? If not, where do you find chains like the ones you use? I live in Australia and have tried local hardware stores, but the heaviest they have are clunky 3kg chains.

Do you feel that Swiss bar cg presses have an advantage over dips for tricep stimulus or vice versa? Which is your preferred tricep exercise and why? And if you can fully pronate your wrists with a close grip, are cg reverse band smith presses fine to do, or could there still be risk of wear and tear over time? How do you feel about a cg press on a converging chest machine such as a HS? Does the converging path take away from triceps?

Have you found a good way to make the HS underhand Pulldown’s profile more favourable? I’ve been trying to experiment with sitting lower / attaching a free moving handle but can’t find a good fit.

If your elbows weren’t fkd, what would be your best / favourite / optimal overhead Tri exercise and why? Obviously one that fits you, but I mean in terms of ability to produce output, alignment and bracing? Does the angle you raise your arm overhead matter, if so how, why and what do you think is “best”?

My chest and triceps often cramp a couple of hours after my push session when I contract them.
I make sure my hydration, salt and magnesium intake is on point and my volume isn’t crazy high either (7 sets chest, 6-7 sets triceps including dips).
Is the volume too high or what could be the reason for the cramping?

Have you tried a Swiss / Hammer grip bar or the Watson tricep bar lying overhead extension/skullcrusher as your main overhead tricep movement? Can you talk about the pros/cons of that movement please? I feel that it’s a great option, but never see you do it?

Following up on your cg pressing mechanics video, does this also apply to a “bench dip” or a machine dip where you’re able to place your hands further back and complete the lockout behind your torso? Sliding your hands further forward would give you a little more elbow flexion, but wouldn’t you get less of a “peak” tricep contraction as you’re locking out with less shoulder extension, and thus the tricep doesn’t get as short as it would with hands further back? So which of these would recruit more tricep?

what I’m your opinion is the best exercise or setup to overload the top (shortened) range for the biceps

Thoughts on Christian Thibadeau’s neurotype training/certification?

[video-skip-position minute=”17″ second=”45″]
I’m trying to cut from 11% BF to 8% BF. I’ve never gotten this far before and I have a trio of questions that I can’t seem to find answers to.

1. How is my training supposed to change when I go from maintenance to calorie deficit? (ex. Less overall sets per week? Or lighter weights? etc.) I’m really clueless here. I’ve been doing the same intense lifting workouts and just eventually getting tired after a number of days on a deficit.

2. Which is better… take your deficit in the form of “less intake/less cardio” OR “more intake, but more cardio”? Does it matter? Where I’m coming from is that I’ve heard that the body freaks out with “less intake/less cardio” but I’m not sure it makes a difference or not.

3. What are some doable deficit ranges you’ve experienced with clients? I’m pretty self-disciplined.
For example…
500 deficit = minimal muscle loss, but super slow fat loss
800 deficit = some muscle loss, moderate fat loss
1200 deficit= more muscle loss, great fat loss
1500 deficit= no one should do this, STAY AWAY

I just made up the example. I don’t really know anything. But how would you adjust those numbers based on your average experience with clients.

A lot of your workouts include the lateral cuff raises, what is a great substitute for gyms without these? I am still having a rough time trying to focus on the lateral head of the delt so are there any positions that may help to focus on really firing them up? Or is it maybe not possible to fire only the lateral head of the delt without the front or rear also activating? It would be cool if you could “teach” the lateral head to be dominant instead of the front or rear

How to strengthen your core when your core is the weak link during deadlifts? What exercises should one do? I deadlift without a belt and my core gives out first causing my spine to round while I have still strength left in my legs/back.

i recently broke my right arm, so I’ll be in a sling for the next 8-10 weeks. Would you recommend that i still train my left side upper body while i recover? i still plan to lift legs heavily and try to maintain my weight/bf levels with cardio and diet

I typically workout in the evening, after work. That being said, I only have 1 meal after my workout then it’s off to bed. From a Hypertrophy standpoint, would it be more beneficial for me to weight train in the morning to follow training with an entire day of eating?
