Q&A: You've said that adding weight to the bar is what stimulates muscle growth but others say that gaining muscle is what lets you add weight to the bar. Thoughts?
Note: I do not read nor answer comments or questions on videos (nor do I delete them). Can't be asked. If you have a question for me send it to: questions@bodyrecomposition.com
I'll probably ignore it but you might get lucky.
In today's Q&A I look at the 'debate' (by which I mean a silly argument people made up years ago to try to make me be wrong) over whether adding weight to the bar (i.e. progressive tension overload) is what stimulates growth or gaining muscle is what ALLOWS you to add weight to the bar.
The answer may shock you (except it probably won't).
I also do Zoom consultations now if you want me to tell you how to live your life:
