In this episode, you’ll discover how much protein to eat in a calorie deficit to hold on to muscle, which bodybuilding myths you can drop, and what can help tighten loose skin after GLP-1 weight loss. I walk you through a new meta-analysis of 29 studies on dieting lifters, why I set my own target higher at 1 to 1.5 grams per pound, and whether switching up exercises builds bigger arms. You’ll also learn how close to failure you really need to train, why fasted cardio may not burn more fat, and why skin sags when weight comes off fast, including the 7% of facial volume lost per 10 kilograms.

I also dig into whether lifting makes women bulky, whether cardio kills your gains, whether you need to eat every three hours, and whether creatine is a steroid (it’s not). You’ll hear why I lift heavier loads on Nautilus machines, the essential amino acids my sons and I take twice daily, why I train fasted on ketones and amino acids, and my morning coffee fat-loss routine. We finish with strategies for tightening loose skin, including collagen, an at-home iRESTORE red light panel (use code BENPRO for $25 off), clinical treatments, and surgery, plus how to keep loose skin from deciding your self-worth.
