Fasted Cardio and rest time
Hi Marc,
I have two questions regarding fasted cardio.
Do you believe that fasted cardio is beneficial to fat loss? When looking for articles online, most of them rave about it. But I've seen other articles where it mentions that it doesn't make a huge difference in people.
I've implemented fasted cardio (with MTS drop factor and MTS machine fuel right before), eating a meal or 2, waiting a few hours, then go into weight training. Is there a set time or optimal time to wait until you train after a fasted cardio session?
Thanks
1) Fasted cardio isn't bad, it just isn't better than cardio at any other time.
2) No need to time cardio
Hypertrophy
Marc, as far as muscle hypertrophy goes. When would you change frequency, volume and intensity methods to facilitate progression towards strength and size gains.
I would stay on a program at least 6-12 weeks to allow for progressive overload to have a chance!
Just train for powerlifting but CONTROL your diet. Johnny Jackson is a world class powerlifter and is a great bodybuilder. It is DIET!
Supplements help, but they aren't magic. And building muscle and losing fat at the same time isn't a great strategy--it is very unlikely.

What's your why?
What's your why? What wakes you up in the morning? What drives you? What allows you to go balls deep every freaking day?
Tired of saying I use to be fit
I have a big lack of motivation and am not in the best shape of my life, a father of 2 girls and all i want to do is have energy for them. Whats the best diet and routine to turn unwanted fat into lean muscle and energy and also keep my workouts exciting?
I wrote www.dropfactorbook.com for this. BUT if you don't enjoy it train a different way BUT the diet in the book will be great for you!
I don't like it because I'm not an insulin spike fan. I recommend mixing MTS Whey with MTS Carb 10
Deadlift Nationals
Hello. I have competed for Nasa-Sports Powerlifting since 2014 and have placed 1st each time. I will soon be attempting a national record in October for deadlift. What is a great routine to develop more strength? Before I was doing my max to often and I didn't feel much strength increase. Right now im on a 3x3 and 5x5 routine and have noticed some differences. Any advice would help. Thanks!
I would look into Westside Conjugate--the produce a lot of top-level powerlifters!
