#320: Q&A Session 32
Show notes
Alberto, Brad, and Brian answer audience-supplied questions about periodization, warm-up sets, coming back from injuries, recomping, competing, and more. If someone doesn’t want to compete and just wants to build an impressive physique over time, do they need to periodize their nutrition and training? What made Brad and Alberto come to the conclusion that they were ready to compete? What criteria does a set need to meet for the coaches to count it towards their volume for the week? How often do the coaches program an intentional surplus? How do you come back from an injury and trust your body again when you are terrified of reinjuring yourself? What is the best way to prepare for your consultation with a 3DMJ coach? The answers to these questions and many more are covered in this episode.
