Diet is everything in regards to physique goals
6-20 rep range is a great place to train for muscle growth, use the entire rep range, there is no secret “hypertrophy 8-12 reps” zone, they all work
Intensity is the key to creating effective workouts & likely you’ll need less volume
Training to failure is fine & works very well
Machines are amazing for muscle growth, even better in many cases than free weights
You don’t need to eat absolutely everything to grow
Rest days are growth days
Counting macros/calories is super easy & makes progress so much easier to get
It’s better to get very lean after newbies gains & then bulk slowly for 6+ months
You look even bigger once truly lean so actually stick with a cut & don’t freak out that you’re “losing too much size bruh”
If you keep protein high, calorie deficit isn’t too aggressive (less than 1000 calorie deficit), & keep lifting hard/fighting to maintain strength, then you won’t lose pretty much any muscle on a cut
There is no reason to get fat on a bulk, it doesn’t help add size
Cardio won’t kill your gains. The opposite is often the case. Stronger heart = better blood flow to muscles
You can eat carbs and lose fat
Permabulking & spending your first 3 years at like 15-20% body fat is dumb, cut, you feel & look so much better + give yourself awesome conditions to grow
Cutting is easier if you do cardio and track steps
Supplements, take them for specific reasons and purposes
Trying to 1 rep max all the time is dumb
You can’t just eat everything because you lift (again)
Take more advantage of being able to build muscle & lose fat at the same time with newbie gains
