Muscle growth is already a slow process, and a lot of what we do with our nutrition slows it down even more. In this episode, I break down the most common nutrition mistakes I see holding people back from building muscle, including eating too few calories, spending too much of the year dieting, and being inconsistent with your intake.
I also cover how much protein you actually need and how to spread it out, how to set up your nutrition around training, why trying to stay too lean or being afraid of the scale can stall progress, and why carbs matter more than most people think.
If your training is dialed in but you're not seeing the progress you want, this episode is for you.
