In this episode of the Over 40 Fitness Hacks podcast, Brad Williams discusses his transition from a six-month weight loss challenge to a new goal of bulking up. He successfully lost 19 pounds by focusing on habit building, even while maintaining an active social life. With his weight loss phase complete, Brad now aims to build muscle, starting from a lean base.
To aid in his muscle-building journey, Brad reintroduced creatine into his regimen, increasing his intake from 5 grams to 10 grams per day. This adjustment has significantly boosted his strength and workout intensity. Additionally, he has started using HMB (Beta-Hydroxy Beta-Methylbutyrate), a supplement derived from the amino acid leucine, to help preserve muscle mass during catabolic phases like fasting and high-intensity workouts.
Brad emphasizes the importance of gradual changes, monitoring his calorie intake, and experimenting with different supplements to find what works best. He plans to continue this careful approach, adjusting his diet and supplementation as needed, and sharing his findings with his audience. Brad invites listeners to engage with him through his Facebook group or via email and offers free 15-minute Zoom consultations to help others achieve their fitness goals.
