2453: Three Things NOBODY Tells You About Gaining Muscle After 40 (Listener Coaching)

In this episode of Quah (Q & A), Sal, Adam & Justin answer four Pump Head questions from the Sunday @mindpumpmedia Quah post. Mind Pump Fit Tip:  Three things NOBODY tells you about gaining muscle after 40. (1:53) Does your birth order play a role in your IQ? (21:14) Defining success and embracing the struggle. (31:50) Organifi’s Starter Kit. (43:09) Underrated exercises. (45:19) GLP-1s impact on your skin. (51:39) The importance of starting a skincare routine. (54:30) Shout out to Brad Jensen! (57:02) #Quah question #1 – How do you gauge appropriate workout intensity? I never get sore, but I have a feeling my workouts are too intense as I have overtraining symptoms. How do you gauge the appropriate dose because I’m scared of doing too little? (58:01) #Quah question #2 – As a 30+ year old female, how realistic is it to achieve and maintain a low enough body fat percentage that showcases abs, leg muscles, defined shoulders, and maintain a healthy hormone profile? Is this possible to maintain without tracking? (1:04:46) #Quah question #3 – Are there any pros and/or cons for lifting low reps and heavy weight for 5-8 reps and mid-weight for 10-12 reps in the same workout in a Push/Pull/Legs split? (1:09:56) #Quah question #4 – What are your thoughts on pausing the use of a GLP-1 for a couple of weeks to do a mini-bulk and then get back on the GLP-1? My calories have dropped low, and I am wondering if interrupting the large deficit with a little bulk would keep me on the right track.

However, I’ve heard from other sources that this is precisely why you “should” eat post-workout as it gets the body into parasympathetic drive quickly. So, I’m confused, should I eat or not eat immediately after my workout?

(1:03:25) #ListenerLive question #1 - Any guidance for balancing commitment toward a specific goal with awareness regarding when to shift gears? (1:05:02) #ListenerLive question #2 - How reliable are body scans? I decided to get a trainer to help me figure out nutrition more. I wanted to see more of the muscle I had been building, so I told her I'd like to cut fat. We did a body scan, and it said to eat about 1750 calories to lean out, which should be a 500-calorie deficit (according to the scan). (1:18:01) #ListenerLive question #3 - After completing MAPS Anabolic, should I continue to chase the strength gains in a program like MAPS Strong, or should I move into something like Performance? While I continue to get stronger with every workout, I'm beginning to experience progressive stiffness throughout my lower back that I cannot seem to shake even with increased mobility work. (1:35:02) #ListenerLive question #4 - I am currently 175 lbs., dropping about .5lb per week. Ideally, I’d like to get macro-focused again, so I can decrease some of the cardio. My goal is to maintain about 160lb. I don’t know if I need to stay at maintenance calories while I decrease the cardio. Do I slowly back out of the cardio? I’m scared to scale back too much and gain weight. (1:42:36) Related Links/Products Mentioned Ask a question to Mind Pump, live!

1960: Four Different Types of Strength and How to Train for Them

In this episode Sal, Adam & Justin cover what you need to know to train for four different types of strength. Strength is the ultimate physical pursuit, but did you know there are different types of strength that you can train for? (1:41)   The Four Different Types of Strength and How to Train for Them.    #1 - Maximal strength. (6:06) Lots of carryover to other types of strength and the real world. Low reps and lifting heavy. Best example: Powerlifter. Phase 1: MAPS Programs. Produces solid, hard-looking body.  #2 - Explosive strength. (12:47) How fast and hard your muscles can contract. This makes you agile and athletic. Involves proper technique and efficiency. Best examples: Olympic lifters and sprinters. Most misunderstood type of strength. Lift lightweight fast for a few reps, but not to fatigue.  #3 - Strength endurance. (22:52) Muscles exert strength rep after rep (driving a sled, supersets, long high-volume sessions). Best examples: Bodybuilder, running back, and CrossFit athlete. Great for real-world work capacity. Phase 3: MAPS Anabolic and Aesthetic. Best for beginners. Training gives you a great pump.  #4 - Relative strength. (29:48) How strong you are for your size. Allows you to move your body through space. Best examples: Gymnastics, wrestlers, and rock climbers. Lots of skill acquisition. Bodyweight exercises, balance exercises, and keeping body weight low. The recommended order and how long to stick in each phase.

1932: Lifting Heavy Vs. Lifting Light

In this episode Sal, Adam & Justin cover the pros and cons of lifting heavy vs. lifting light. There are two main ways to strength train. The first one is to make heavy weights feel light. The second is to make light weights feel heavy. (1:40) Which avatar benefits more from switching lifting methods, the bodybuilder or the powerlifter? (4:12) The mentality MATTERS most! (10:04)   The Focus, Pros, and Cons of Lifting Heavy Vs. Lifting Light.   Lifting Heavy: Maximizes efficiency, focuses on movement, and doesn’t focus on “feeling” the muscle. (13:40) Focus: Psyching up, and perfecting the smooth movement. (16:55) Pros: Great for overall muscle, real-world applicable strength, and builds a solid body. (19:12) Cons: Higher injury risk, feeds the ego, and it's hard to bring up lagging body parts. (25:50) Lifting Light: Maximizes inefficiency, focuses on the target muscle, and it's all about the “feel.” (30:08) Focus: Calm collected, and visualizes the target muscle. (35:08) Pros: Brings up target body parts, and lowers injury risk. (41:25) Cons: Doesn’t build as much total muscle, and strength is less applicable to the real-world.

1429: The Truth About Powerbuilding Workouts, When Zercher Squats Are Better Than Front Squats, Working Out for Fun & More

In this episode of Quah (Q & A), Sal, Adam & Justin answer Pump Head questions about the effectiveness of powerbuilding, the value a Zercher squat provides that a front squat doesn’t, the best program for someone who wants to maximize benefits while losing weight, and when it is advisable to go “off script” for the sake of fun when following a workout program.

I find the pain of the bar, in the crook of my arms for Zercher squat, limits the weight I can lift way before my muscle strength does. So, I wonder if I should front squat instead? (55:49) #Quah question #3 – What program would you recommend for someone who wants to maximize benefits while losing weight? I don’t want to lift just to maintain muscle. I want to improve other things at the same time. I’d imagine something like MAPS Performance would be good because it would help maintain muscle while also improving other athletic factors that won’t be minimized during weight loss.

It’s one of the ‘it’ factors you mention along with reps, weight, and sets to help break through a plateau. But how would you measure your intensity in order to increase it? (48:05) #Quah question #2 – In a lot of your past podcast episodes, I have heard a lot about how to spot a bad or inexperienced trainer. For example, trainers just trying to exhaust clients and that is what I mostly see in gyms. How do you spot a good trainer? If you don’t see any in your own gym, how can you go about finding one? (58:17) #Quah question #3 – Assuming someone is getting adequate protein and fat, what are the advantages or disadvantages of different macro ratios? When would you recommend high carb or high fat? Does it matter for the average person? (1:11:00) #Quah question #4 – I am a new trainer and already employed at a gym that is chalked full of leads, but I’m wondering if I should also develop my social media to advertise myself? How important do you think it is to build an online business to go alongside in-person training? Do you think it will lead to being a more successful trainer long-term?

750: How to Avoid Muscle Building Plateaus by Escaping the Breakdown/Recovery Trap

In this episode Sal, Adam & Justin go into detail about the Breakdown/Recovery Trap, the trap that many people fall into where they work out, get sore, recover and DON'T adapt (AKA grow). If you want to maximize muscle growth, your workout must to be designed to maximize your body's adaptive response and contrary to popular belief, how hard you work out and how sore you get is a horrible indicator of the effectiveness of your workout. Listen to this episode and find out how to really elicit the changes you want in your body. Instagram models rule the internet. The guys discuss the explosion of Instagram models and how they build a successful business. (2:56) Mind Pump most awkward moments. Personal stories are shared from moments they saw clients outside of work. (9:21) Digital pimping. The great debate: Who are people paying to see? Men or women models? The guys share their opinions based on the market. (12:18) New excuses, there is never a reason to carry a knife. Sal shares a recent Instagram post he made regarding London's murder rate surpassing New York for 1st time ever and should we have access to weapons or not?

(36:45) Be open minded enough to do the opposite of what you always hear. Do as little as possible to elicit the most change. I’m not in the business of working out; I’m in the business of proving I can change my physique. Efficiency vs. burning yourself out. The competition of being the trainer known for destroying their clients. You don’t have to WIN your workout.

705: Mareya Ibrahim- One Simple Step to Improve Your Food Quality Now

In this episode Sal, Adam & Justin speak with Mareya Ibrahim, the CEO and founder of Grow Green Industries, Inc. and the patented co-creator of the eatCleaner®, eatSafe™ and eatFresh™ line of all natural and organic products that help offer cleaner, safer, longer lasting produce.  In this episode Mareya dives into the challenges facing consumers when purchasing commercially produced foods. Even organic fruits and vegetables have residues that you are better off avoiding and Mareya and her company have created a very effective solution to keep your food as healthy and chemical free as possible. To purchase Eat Cleaner products go to www.eatcleaner.com/mindpump Come forth and be honest. Mareya talks about a conference she attended where the speaker was marketing lab meat as a health food. (4:00) “It’s become too expensive to do anything that is not subsidized.” Distribution is directly affected by the conditions. She uses the example of coca and it’s disturbing. (8:07) Life rotated around food. Mareya talks about her early days, her relationship with food and how having kids changed her perspective on the quality of food that she put in her body. (19:26) What else do you clean with water that comes out of the ground? She describes the Eat Cleaner product and why it works. (26:15) Organic doesn’t mean that you are buying something pesticide free. What fruits/vegetables have the highest pesticides? She talks about the strawberry study they conducted. (28:45) We are getting rid of what can carry the bacteria. Will you ingest antibiotics if I use this product? (32:45) Had to create a standard. Have a thirst to be educated. Mareya talks about how the industry has changed since she first started and why we label things. (34:34) The fluff around labels. She explains the labels out there and what they really mean. (46:20) The demand for fresh food has created demand for their products. She talks about how telling stories helps people understand things better. (54:33) The Real Dish. She mentions her upcoming book and the power of conversation at the dinner table. (1:00:15) Eat as close as to nature indented and be aware of the risks. (1:01:45) We do not realize the importance of food when we are young. She talks about being the child of an immigrant family, her eating disorder and how it impacted her life. (1:04:23) Links/Products Mentioned: Impossible Foods Can Food be Addictive?

599: Correcting Screwed Up Hormones, Overcoming Acne, Avoiding Lower Back Strain When Overhead Pressing & MORE

Organifi Quah! iTunes Review Winners! In this episode of Quah, sponsored by Organifi (organifi.com, code "mindpump" for 20% off), Sal, Adam & Justin answer Pump Head questions about strategies for women who have screwed up their hormones and can't lose fat, if some people are genetically predisposed to having to take pharmaceuticals to be "normal," tips for persistent acne when the elimination diet has failed and pointers for avoiding lower back strain when doing a standard military press.

The first is that there are some people who are simply genetically predisposed to superior fitness or athletic prowess, something that it would be hard for anyone to refute. The second is several times it has come up in reference to western medicine's ability to treat chronic health concerns. It came up recently when you spoke on ADHD. So if there are people who are simply genetically predestined to be superior in certain aspects, why would someone not simply be genetically predestined to be much weaker in a certain function such as focus? Is it realistic to think that there are people who will simply never be “normal” without some sort of daily pharmaceutical intervention? Does this represent a true belief for any of you or is it just a result of interpretation? (53:26) Quah question #3 – Any tips for an adult male with acne?

293: Frequency for Muscle Growth

How many times each week should you train a muscle? In the bodybuilding world there is a belief that intensity and recovery are key. This has led to the body part split where you blast a muscle group and then take days off from training that group to allow the muscle to recover. Studies are now confirming what Sal, Adam & Justin have been saying since the inception of Mind Pump, that more frequent stimulation of the muscle builds more muscle. In this episode they reveal why and what you need to know to successfully incorporate frequency into your workout regimen to increase your muscle growth. Please subscribe, rate and review this show!

But machines must be used strategically and properly. In this episode they reveal HOW machines can be used to augment your workouts and how they can, in fact, be used to build more muscle.

264: The Art & Science of Designing Workout Programs aka PROGRAMMING

The average workout program that is being sold today is no more than a bunch of exercises thrown together to make you FEEL like something is happening without producing any results. Then to add insult to injury, these crap program purveyors pitch you on expensive supplements that they claim make the difference between success and failure in the gym. Here's the fact: Your workout (combined with a healthy diet and sufficient rest) is the KEY factor that determines if you will build any significant muscle or not. Supplements, in spite of all the hype and attention, play a very small role (possibly unmeasurable) in how your body adapts and builds. So why all this focus on supplements? Because they are a huge money maker and play into peoples' frustration and desire for the quick fix. If you want gains you must put your focus on how your workouts are designed and executed, not on supplements. Excellent workout design, also known as workout programming, is not an easy task and requires a very high degree of expertise and experience. Sal, Adam & Justin are often asked what makes an expertly programmed workout and why the MAPS programs work so well. You will soon learn why this is not a simple question to answer.
