What I Wish Someone Told Me When I Started The Gym

I may not have the best genetics, but the consistency I’ve applied to my fitness has taken me to some places I never thought I’d go.
 The answer isn’t sexy. It’s not something you can buy; it’s just building the habits that over time, will amount to results that will surpass what you thought was originally possible.

So that’s why I started the 2025 Finish Strong Challenge. It’s the push I wish I would have had when I first started, so if you’re ready to lock in this holiday season and end the year with momentum — this is for you.

Can you actually build muscle at maintenance calories? 🤔

In Episode 94 of The Trainer’s Scoop Podcast, @jorge_bfitness and I delve into what has been a hot topic in recent months. Some feel that staying more toward maintenance calories is a great way to progress without getting overly fat, while others feel like it might not move the needle for gains.

What you won’t hear on social media is the context that helps you make this decision; so go check the full episode to help you make the right call!!

We also dive into home gyms, and Jorge’s work with @rpstrength so you won’t wanna miss it!

Listen to Episode 94 now on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts!

Chasing The Shiny Object Syndrome

The TRAINER’S SCOOP IS RETURNING!

And I’ve been sitting on this episode with the one and only @jorge_bfitness for a long time…so I thought what better to return with than a guest that really gets it.

In this episode we hit on our evolving thoughts toward muscle gaining phases (is the bulk dead???) and emphasize what most people are truly missing — and that is the tried and true basics that work.

It’s easy to get distracted in this social media world, but Jorge and I chop it up and lay down some game for beginners, or those needing the reminders (all of us) for what really moves the needle.

Episode drops tomorrow at 7am…be on the lookout! by @dmart_training

Is 2 A Day Training The Secret Unlock??

New training vlog is live — and we’re digging into the 2 a day split I’ve been running over the past 10 weeks.

The older era bodybuilders were huge into 2 a day training, and many credit two a day training to their success on stage…but is it truly for everyone?

Check out the full video to see how I’m approaching 2 a day training to see if it’ll take you to the next level by @dmart_training

Simplicity and Repeatability

The sessions I hit in my garage gym take me back to where it all started.

Back when I was ~16 I had my dads old Kmart weight set (it made an appearance again during the shut down) with concrete weights and a bar that bent when you had over 200 pounds on it.

I brought it up from the garage to my room and every night I’d hit some kind of workout that I’d either picked up from a magazine or YouTube.

I literally would just bench press, hit rows, and of course some curls, on repeat. It was about as basic as you could get but every night I was excited for that time.

Those were some of the fondest times I look back on, and hitting these garage gym lifts definitely had a similar feel.

Find the system that works for you, push hard, then repeat it and you’ll get the results you came for 🫡 by @dmart_training

A Sunday Meal Prep (Adjacent) Tip For You All

Maintaining palatability, or more simply said, helping your meal prepped foods taste good when you’re eating them goes a looooong way when it comes to sticking to the process.

You may have experience going to all of the effort of prepping your meals on a Sunday, just for them to taste like ass when you re heat them.

That can be attended to, to some point by improving your prep methods…but I swear, sometimes microwaving food is just not the move. I’ve found reheating/steaming my food in a pan maintains taste in a profound way, almost like cooking it from scratch!

So if you have a little extra time throughout your day, take the 10-15 minutes to reheat your food in a pan vs opting for the quicker microwave reheat, it’ll help with sticking to those meals when they feel monotonous! #mealprep #mealpreptips #fitness #nutrition #gym

Nothing Worth Doing Is Easy 🫡

In the social media fitness era, I think people fall into the trap of forgetting that identity change takes a whole lotta effort, because we see the highlight reel.

But embracing discomfort in checking the boxes day in and day out, doing the little things, and embracing discomfort is one of the most beneficial endeavors you’ll go upon
