You\u2019ve been training hard and eating right, and you\u2019ve been making gains.

Your stomach is tighter. You\u2019re stronger than ever before. Your friends are starting to make meathead jokes.

But progress has slowed.

It\u2019s getting harder and harder to add weight to the bar and your body isn\u2019t changing like it once was.

What to do?

Well, if you turn to the magazines, you\u2019ll probably conclude that you just have to eat more. \u201cEat big to get big\u201d right?

Sorta kinda maybe\u2026

Yes, a caloric surplus is conducive to muscle gain, but no, adding a gallon of milk per day to your meal plan isn\u2019t advisable. You\u2019ll gain weight, alright, but too much will be fat.

You need a smarter approach, and rest-pause training can help.

As you\u2019ll see, this simple weightlifting tool can be adapted to any type of workout program, and, unlike most fancy-sounding training tips, it has science on its side. It actually works.

So, in this podcast, you\u2019re going to learn what rest-pause training is, why it works, and how to do it right so you can get the needle moving again.
