How to Fuel Early Morning Sessions, the Interference Effect & Favourite Exercises by Muscle Group
from The Bodybuilding Dietitians · host The Bodybuilding Dietitians
In this episode of The Bodybuilding Dietitians Podcast, we work through listener questions across three topics: early morning training nutrition, the interference effect from combining resistance training with other sports, and our current favourite exercises for hypertrophy across every major muscle group. On fuelling, we cover practical strategies for pre-dawn sessions including hydration, carbohydrate timing, caffeine, and how to structure the night before to set yourself up. We then discuss the realities of balancing lifting with team sports or cardio, how to prioritise when goals compete, and what Damien learned firsthand from juggling football and bodybuilding prep. We wrap up with a full run-through of our go-to movements for lats, back thickness, quads, glutes, hamstrings, chest, abs, delts, biceps, and triceps, including why stimulus-to-fatigue ratio and enjoyment matter more than defaulting to the traditional barbell lifts. ⸻ Links & Resources Coaching Services – https://www.thebodybuildingdietitians.com/enquirenow Website – https://www.thebodybuildingdietitians.com/ Instagram The Bodybuilding Dietitians – https://www.instagram.com/thebodybuildingdietitians/?hl=en Team TBD – https://www.instagram.com/_teamtbd_/?hl=en Jack Radford-Smith – https://www.instagram.com/jack.radfordsmith/?hl=en Damien Cox – https://www.instagram.com/dietitian_damiencox/?hl=en Lauren Stevens – https://www.instagram.com/thephysiquedietitian_/?hl=en ⸻ Enjoying the podcast?
