The Forever Athletic Pod

This episode is all about why your body is the ultimate status symbol for over 30's, more so than cars, property, pay-checks and jewellery.

In this episode I explain why I believe Strength and Conditioning (S&C) style coaching is the BEST method for busy over 30's compared to bootcamps, metcons, HIIT and circuits.

It's time to get SUMMER STRONG, by losing 4-8kg and gaining significant muscle in 60 days.

I was recently asked as part of my Q&A podcast curating process to give the people what they want... which is apparently the best plan for building chest and biceps.

So for fear of letting the masses down, and also because I could talk about this topic all day, I thought I'd dedicate a full episode to the chest (and then one to the biceps).

So here it is, 16 glorious minutes of pec chat, telling you everything you need to know how to build the chest and fuck the rest, how to get big pecs that pay cheques, and how to grow some peachy upper body glutes.

Are active recovery and recovery workouts a fad, or is there method in the madness?

Why do I rarely prescribe fat/carb macro targets to fat loss clients?

How do you maintain motivation when the scales have stopped moving?

All these questions are answered in this weeks Q&A pod.

This week I welcome the first guest onto the Forever Athletic Podcast, with Todd Price joining me to chat all things lifting, coaching and building everyday athletes.

Todd is a top quality coach, educator and recently published researcher with a wealth of knowledge to share.

We talk about:

- Todd's journey through sport and coaching

- Todd's recent experience of coaching in Saudi Arabia

- Our coaching philosophies and values

- Coaching priorities when coaching everyday athletes including princes and diplomats.

- Todd's current training and goals.

- What's next in his coaching career.

Dan and Luke are two of my favourite clients.

We work together once per-week in person, and they do their other 3 sessions per week together like a classic pair of bro's.

In the last 2 years (plus 2-3 years of training beforehand), they've made epic progress,

I'm talking 200/250kg deadlifts, 125/140kg bench presses, and 140/205kg squats.

These guys are legit.

So here's a story about how they became the strongest guys in the gym, with plenty you can learn about to apply to your journey.

Let me introduce you to STRONG IN 60, my group online coaching programme that helps you escape the lifestyle drift that slows down countless busy over 30's, and drives you toward becoming the strong, confident, in-control Everyday Athlete you want to be.

In this episode I run through what lifting tempos are, and share my favourite tempos that I've used with thousands of clients to help them gain strength, build muscle, move better than ever, and be a badass in the gym.

Been training for 1-2 years? Strength come to a grinding halt? Squat, bench and deadlift seeming stuck for weeks/months at a time?

This pod is going to tell you all you need to know to smash through your lifting plateaus, including my 3 favourite set and rep schemes to help my clients do that.

In this episode I dive into the strategies I used to help myself and my client Tom gain 9-11kg of muscle in 2023, including my favourite hypertrophy training split.

Avoid these 3 common mistakes everyday athletes make when it comes to making a fitness/physique transformation.
