I am in the military and have to train to maintain a sub-16 min 2-mi run time. However, I’ve found it difficult to balance a training program for optimal leg growth that will also not impede my ability to maintain/ improve my run time. What would you suggest is an effective way to structure a program that will allow me to progress them leg gainz but not Impede my running training???

I was wondering if in your experience you’ve seen anybody successfully add significant size on a ketogenic or targeted ketogenic (30-50 grams post workout) type of diet. I love carbs but unfortunately I’m type 1 diabetic and prefer to limit carb/insulin balancing as much as possible because it’s just less stressful for me. I do hope to compete at some point within a year or so but I’d like to add some mass I’m 5’10 180lbs about 8% bodyfat 26 years old.

In the 6 week program, I noticed a lack of overhead pressing movements or front raises targeting front delts. On the press days, in the incline Swiss bar and dips hit the front delts, but my question is… Is there a specific reason or training philosophy behind the absence of an overhead press or front raise exercise? Side note… I’m still loving the program.

I want to put on some size so I’m planning to bulk for 4-5 weeks, then do a mini-cut and repeat. My question is would you recommend carb cycling while bulking? I’m doing a pull push legs off split so I could do medium, medium, high, low carbs. Or should I just keep calories the same throughout the bulk phase?

Just at the point of starting with your app and choosing program, I’ve been away for a month so have done no training, and have added more fat of which I had to much to start with. My goal is to build more muscle and lean out by next year. I’m starting at a guess around 25% body fat and was wondering if you would recommend dropping my bady fat first before doing a bulk? Or bulk now and cut later?

I’ve searched the site for direct core work without success. Do you have any recommendations for core? Also my glutes are like a pair of flat pancakes, would you recommend training them with more frequency, like say a kind of finisher for glutes akin to a bret Contreras type thing on non leg days?
