My job is physically demanding. How should I approach training?
My ultimate goal is to put on some size. I work a 10 hour job at a warehouse that requires constant moving and lifting. How do I get the most results in the gym, but still prevent injury. Changing my split? Thank you man
How do you feel about Pre-workouts that contain creatine?
I have seen this time and again where certain companies will add creatine or have a creatine matrix to there per-workouts. I am trying to cut and have switched to a non-creatine pre-workout to help myself in my goals to loose fat and gain more lean muscle mass. What are your thoughts on that? Am I cutting myself short and missing out on gaining some more muscle mass by using a pre-workout that has a small dosage of creatine?
TRT and test boosters?
if you are on trt is it pointless to take a natural test. booster. or is there any extra benefit?
What lifting and diet advice do you have for a high school quarterback, trying to get leaner, but still needing to be strong enough to get bullied on the field?
I'm an 18 year old senior in high school, not over weight but looking to slim down so that I can be faster and I need advice on what kind of food I should I eat for breakfast before our summer workout, along with workout advice?
At your age, just make healthy food choices. Avoid fast food and eat as healthy as you can while getting in 1g protein per lb bodyweight daily
Do you have a stack what compares to the jym line and how does it compare.

Im looking for somthing what is comparable. Can you help me out.

Front squat vs back squat
Hey Marc is there any problem with substituting in front squat for back squat completely for an extended period of time? Been really enjoying the front squat only for the past 6 months and have noticed great quad gains.
NOT AT ALL! In fact, one can argue front squats are BETTER for your core and avoiding spinal compression.
When it comes to dieting for either fat loss or muscle gain, what would you say are the best ways to get clients or others to stay true to the plan and not deviate?
hey Marc, just wanted to ask if there's anything that you have anecdotal experience with over your 20+ on helping people stick to a specific goal in mind?
Be realistic and set logical goals. I also find FLEXIBLE meal plans as found in www.dropfactorbook.com work better than macro diets since spacing and planning meals is too much work for most!
In and out of season Rugby Strength and Conditioning
Currently using your Exos 5-Day College gains split for out of season hypertrophy. For in season strength training should I move back to a power-based split?
In season, assuming a plyo and agility program built into practice, I would move to a 2-3 day a week program focusing on core strength lifts to MAINTAIN.
Superset
Benchpress and incline bench for example. 8 reps of bench then 8 reps of incline for the superset. Should you drop the weight to complete both exercises in the superset or do you want to fail on the last rep of each exercise in the superset?
Typically to maximize your supersets you want to work antagonistic muscle groups (ones that oppose each others function). Such as biceps and triceps. I can burn up my biceps to near failure; then start doing pushdowns with no problem. But if I tried to do flay bench, then move straight to incline bench; that is simply fatiguing the exact same muscle group.
If you were looking for hypertrophy; try something that works the same group in different ways. Maybe a set of flat bench of 6-8 reps; then 12-15 reps of a laying plate press to really fill the pecs with blood.
Can you explain whether it is useful to have different protein powders for different times of the day?
Does it make that much of a difference to have so many different whey proteins then casein. It is a bit overwhelming when deciding what to do when there are like over 20 different types of powders. Thank you for your time
