Description

What’s the least you can do to maintain or even build muscle? How do you balance movement quality with output for athletes? And is there such a thing as “too much” technical obsession?

In this episode, I’m joined by Ryan L’Ecuyer—bodybuilder, strength coach, and expert in hypertrophy and movement strategies. We cover:

✅ Minimal effective dose for hypertrophy (and why less might be more).
 ✅ How to balance athletic movement and output in programming.
 ✅ Smarter ways to train in-season without losing size or strength.
 ✅ Our unfiltered takes on trends in strength & conditioning—and why coaches often overcomplicate the basics.

This one is part masterclass, part comedy special. Whether you’re a coach, athlete, or just someone trying to train for life, you’ll walk away with practical insights (and a few laughs).
