Research seems to show they are VERY effective for a shorter period of time than straight sets, so why are we not all doing drop sets all the time? (15:00) - I have been lifting consistently for about a year and a half. In the fall, I started hiring a personal trainer to write 8-week programs for me. The most recent one she wrote put the days in the following order: push, legs, pull, legs, glutes/shoulders. I always hear you are not supposed to work the same muscle group two days in a row. On this program, the last two days both include multiple glute exercises (for example- hip thrusts and glute-focused leg press on one day…kickbacks and glute emphasized back extensions on the next). Am I overthinking the fact that these exercises are one day apart? Or is this a sign that my trainer may not know what she’s doing? (24:40) - Question about clients coming from Optavi,  which is a very restrictive fad diet. Like 800-1000 cals and they recommend no exercise. Just awful. Anyway, I have a lot of women coming to me off of that program. Many of them have lost a good chunk of weight and many have gained weight back but they all have weight they still need to lose. I’m not sure  if they can safely continue in a deficit. They have body fat to lose but on the flip side they have spent many months on this very low calorie program. Which direction would you think is best for these individuals? —- Social Links: Blog – http://www.tailoredcoachingmethod.com/blog Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/tailoredcoachingmethod Instagram -https://www.instagram.com/codymcbroom YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/codymcbroom1 Email – [email protected] Cody McBroom Has Also Been Featured On: Huffington Post, Bodybuilding.com, The PTDC, Dr. John Rusin, Muscle For Life, Barbell Shrugged, Strong By Design, OPEX Fitness and More…
