#180: Q&A Session 18

3D Muscle Journey

Andrea, Alberto, and Eric answer 11 audience-supplied questions about protein, training, supplements, contest prep, massing phases, and more.

What are Eric and Alberto's current supplement routines? How do the coaches feel about shorter preps with no refeeds? How can someone decrease the amount of muscle and/or joint soreness they feel after a training session? Is it possible to make muscular gains after 40? How can goal focus impede goal achievement?

The answers to these questions, plus many more are covered in this episode!
