| 8/31/26 | Weight stable doesn't automatically = adequately fueled | Ep 773 | In this episode, I break down why having a stable body weight doesn’t automatically mean you’re adequately fueling your body. I discuss who is most at risk of underfueling, some of the signs to look out for, and how staying too lean, high training output, and chronic dieting can contribute to the problem. I also cover what you can do to improve energy availability and better support your training, recovery, and overall health. This episode will help you understand why stable weight doesn’t al... | 32m 39s | ||||||
| 8/28/26 | Exploring Peptides for Health, Recovery, and Performance with Dave Marsh | Ep 772 | Welcome to the Mind Muscle Connection Podcast! Peptides are having a moment, promising to boost recovery, metabolism, body composition, and performance. In this episode, Dave Marsh and I break down what they actually are, the categories, and how to source them safely, along with what Dave has learned firsthand using them for recovery, body composition, and performance.

| 8/24/26 | You Can Build Muscle In a Deficit, But You Need To Know These Things | Ep 771 | Building muscle in a calorie deficit is possible, but your ability to do so depends on several factors. In this episode, I break down how resistance training, the size of your deficit, your current muscle mass, body fat levels, protein intake, and hormone status affect your ability to build muscle while losing body fat. I also cover how to set realistic expectations, when maintaining muscle should become the priority, and why spending time outside of a deficit is important for continued progr... | 21m 34s | ||||||
| 8/21/26 | Training Volume, Progressive Overload & Building More Muscle with Steve Hall | Ep 770 | Welcome to the Mind Muscle Connection Podcast! How much training volume can you actually recover from and when is it too much? In his 14th appearance on the podcast, Steve Hall breaks down how he manages extremely high training volumes, recovers from hard sessions, and uses the logbook without letting it dictate his training. We also discuss how he adjusts his training to manage fatigue, maintain performance, and keep progressing at an advanced level. We also get into his nutrition a... | 1h 03m 32s | ||||||
| 8/17/26 | How To Periodize Your Training | Ep 769 | Welcome to the Mind Muscle Connection Podcast! Training periodization is about adjusting your training throughout the year based on your goals, nutrition, recovery, and life situation. In this episode, I break down how to structure different phases around lifting, cardio, or a combination of both. I also cover how nutrition affects training, how to approach training during fat loss, and how to use hypertrophy, strength, body part specialization, and cardio-focused blocks throughout the year. ... | 41m 28s | ||||||
| 8/14/26 | Do You Need To Change Your Training Based On Your Menstrual Cycle? w/ Dr. Alysha D'Souza | Ep 768 | Welcome to the Mind Muscle Connection Podcast! Cycle syncing sounds like it should work but the research doesn't back it up. In this episode, Alysha D'Souza and I break down what actually happens across the menstrual cycle, from how estrogen and progesterone affect muscle growth to what her own training study found when she tested cycle syncing head to head against a normal training split. We also talk about why tracking your cycle matters even if you're not chasing fertility, what coun... | 1h 16m 21s | ||||||
| 8/10/26 | How Much Training Do You Need To Do Per Week For Muscle Growth? | 767 | Welcome to the Mind Muscle Connection Podcast! Training volume is one of the biggest factors to consider when building muscle. In this episode, I break down how to think about weekly sets, how much volume most people need, and what factors determine how much training you can actually recover from. I also cover why the quality of your training matters, how to track volume, how to spread your sets throughout the week, and when it makes sense to adjust your training. This episode will help yo... | 32m 15s | ||||||
| 8/7/26 | Check These 7 Things Before Decreasing Calories Further In Fat Loss | Ep 766 | Welcome to the Mind Muscle Connection Podcast!

Small improvements in these areas can make a meaningful difference in your results while helping you maintain muscle, recover better and stay consistent. ... | 39m 46s | ||||||
| 8/3/26 | A Tool To Measure How Stressful Your Fat Loss Phase Is | Ep 765 | Welcome to the Mind Muscle Connection Podcast! Fat loss requires a calorie deficit, but there is a point where low energy availability can start creating more stress on the body. In this episode, I break down how to estimate the stress of a fat loss phase using the energy availability equation and what it can tell you about whether you may be under fueling. I also explain the limitations of this equation, why body fat levels and individual differences matter, and the signs to look for when a ... | 34m 14s | ||||||
| 7/31/26 | 3 Reasons You Aren't Getting As Lean As You Want | Ep 764 | Welcome to the Mind Muscle Connection Podcast! Getting leaner isn't always about eating fewer calories or pushing harder. If fat loss has stalled, there's usually a bigger reason behind it. In this episode, I break down the three biggest reasons people struggle to get as lean as they want. We cover the physical, mental, and skill based factors that can hold you back, why your body may need a break from dieting, and how improving your habits can set you up for better fat loss long term.

| 7/27/26 | Why Women Are More Likely To Body Recomp with Brandon DaCruz | Ep 763 | Welcome to the Mind Muscle Connection Podcast! Body recomposition is possible for everyone, but women are generally in a better position to pull it off than men. That doesn't mean it's simple, or that you should stay in a recomp phase forever. In this episode, Brandon Dacruz and I break down the physiological and practical reasons why women recomp so well, from body fat levels to estrogen's role in muscle recovery.

Whether you're in a fat loss phase or a building phase, each has a purpose and each comes with trade-offs if you stay there too long.
