Before anything - at the very end of the episode I badly misspoke and said that lean bulking is a bad idea. Of course this was a mistake and I mean to say dirty bulking. But this is a 1 take show and a 1 man team so I wasn’t about to re-record the whole thing for that small mistake, onwards!

I know it’s tempting to want to get as big as possible, eat as much as you can, have little regard for body fat, and really see how big and strong you can get - but I highly suggest you avoid this.

Eventually, you’ll want to stop and lean out again, and then this is where you’ll want to spend most of your time thereafter. It would be much healthier, and overall more effective if you just stay lean and slowly bulk up over a longer period of time.

The 5 mins of happiness you get from hitting an all time high weight and strength is not worth putting on the necessary body fat to do this. I spoke about my recent experience with this, why I did it, what I regret about it, and what I would do instead.

At the end of the day, I hope you learn from my mistakes and avoid this trap, ultimately leading to greater success in your own health and fitness.
