They're chasing fancy workouts, "optimal" exercises, magic supplements, and TikTok trends… while completely ignoring the boring basics that ACTUALLY build muscle. In this episode, I sit down with my mate Denver — a long-time coach who's worked with both men and women for years — to break down the real mechanics of muscle building. They're chasing fancy workouts, "optimal" exercises, magic supplements, and TikTok trends… while completely ignoring the boring basics that ACTUALLY build muscle. In this episode, I sit down with my mate Denver — a long-time coach who's worked with both men and women for years — to break down the real mechanics of muscle building. We unpack: • Why so many people train hard but barely change their body • The biggest mistakes people make when trying to build muscle • Progressive overload, intensity, recovery, nutrition, and what actually matters most • Why women are still scared of "getting bulky" • Whether you can build muscle and lose fat at the same time • The truth about supplements, soreness, volume, and gym myths • How muscle building changes as we age • Why consistency beats perfection every single time We also dive into the modern obsession with optimisation, including an honest conversation around TRT, peptides, recovery, and what people should focus on BEFORE jumping into that world. This episode is practical, grounded, and cuts through a lot of the fitness industry noise. If you've ever felt confused, overwhelmed, frustrated by slow progress, or like you're working hard without seeing results — this one's for you.
