I’m currently on the hood’s intermediate balanced program and I want to build a strong posterior chain. I have safety bar squats on leg day and dB rows on back day is this enough? Are deadlifts a good option or just a lot of risk injury. If so please describe how you avoid injury on deadlifts and how often is too much of them.

What do you consider the most “important” principals when it comes to hypertrophy?

If I want to improve my front squat and progress stalls a bit can I continue to try to improve by going at it again for the next few weeks. (assuming that sleep and recovery are pretty good because other lifts are still progressing steadily) At what point do I need to switch it up and is it really necessary? I think ive heard you say after 6 months you might change your staple compound movement to another especially if progress in that movement slows. Ive been on front squats for 7 months and seen some stalling the last 3-4 weeks. my reason for doing front squats is I like challenging myself and also im 6ft2 so I find mobility wise and depth the front squat agrees with my body (no pain or feeling shit where I shouldn’t like I do a back squat). I really don’t want to give this movement up am I fool for that?

If you aren’t sore after a workout, what conclusions can you draw as a result of that? Does it mean you didn’t stimulate the trained muscle enough, or can you still grow?

Hey Joe. Less of a question, and more of a request: would you consider doing a chest specialisation programme/ebook (like the ‘Calformation’ one you’ve done)?

personally love supersetting exercises. I know you’re a fan of drop sets. Does this mean you prefer supersetting two of the same body part exercises together or opposing body parts? Such as a lat pull with a row vs a chest with a back? Prefer compound first with an isolation second?

I ruptured my pec tendon about 2 months ago, and comparing both pecs my uninjured looks substantially larger. When I get back into training should I still try create Hypertrophy In my left or play catch up and have my right pec gain strength and rebuild?

you discussed multiple times that frequency training is good for developing lagging body part, but what about frequency training for fat loss? Thanx

MOAB from Redcon1
Ideal time to take?
Realistic expectations from this product?
Are you gonna try it?
[video-skip-position minute=”23″ second=”58″]
any thoughts of including a block of strictly sub-max only training, with a focus on execution? I already have execution based exercises as you note in your HWOD document, but just wanted to see if you think a training block of only sub-max would have some additional benefits.

When you began training individuals – particularly general public oppose to bodybuilders – did you ever find yourself in a position where you would choose to not coach them based on intuition, whether it be online coaching, or 1 to 1.

Just a random question about working up to your working sets e.g. 4 sets of 12 (4:2:1:0) cannonball leg press. I always do 1-2 “nervous system warm up
whatever sets”. So do i start of the first set with 50% of my 1 RM or do i immediately start with 75% and work up from there in those given sets?

I can’t do single pull up / chin up. What preparation / progression would you suggest for 8-10 pull ups/ set? Thanks

since losing 125lbs, everytime I bulk it seems I just get fat instead of actually building muscle. What would your thoughts be about some one trying to add mass that has lost a substantial amount of weight, vs some on who has not. Should macros be different because the individual was overweight before? does that play a role in how they use nutrients?

what are your thoughts on training fullbody 5/6 times/week with using only 1 exercise per bodypart, do you think the extra output per bodypart would be more beneficial then using a split where you would accumulate more fatigue per bodypart?

I remember watching in one of your videos you mention the EMG just measures muscle activity and not tension from load (if I remember correctly) could you touch on that a little further please

If you were to train first thing in the morning fasted, when would be the optimal time to do cardio during a fat loss phase? Would you train and then do cardio all in one session? It seems like you would be digging that metaphoric ditch too deep doing it that way. Thanks in advance!

Been sponging it up now for 6 months now. But in that time, our daughter was born and my commitment to training/nutrition has taken a massive dive. Now the routines kicking in, I need to recomp this skinny fat thing I’ve got going on. I’m 82kg at around 20% BF. Would you suggest losing the fat first? And if so what would you suggest my calories and macro split look like? Or eat at maintenance for a few weeks while I get back into the swing of training? Cheers!
