How can we make decisions within exercise programming to ultimately facilitate transformative growth?  In today’s solocast, Ben breaks down the relationship between signal and response, so that you can outline your ideal progression within any training discipline. Ben also answers some popular listener questions, including how he makes training-based decisions around his own supplementation, and what supplements he includes in his nutrition regiment. No matter where you are in your own training, this episode will allow you to identify your greatest opportunity to elicit a response for high performance. Listen to gain insight on: Where you are on a nervous system continuum. Why quality of movement matters so much. How to get a BIGGER response with LESS work. What opportunity lies within paying attention to your weaknesses. When evaluating recovery time can help you make decisions.

Ready to transform your body for life? " Over the last 24 months, I've been refining my own muscle-building framework as I came up on my 40th birthday earlier this year... And here's what I realized: I need my training to be more efficient and effective than ever because my priorities have shifted and I no longer can (or want) to invest HOURS a day in the gym...It's no longer just about the ego and being the biggest guy in the room. Now… I’m all about LOOKING great, FEELING great and Being HEALTHY and doing it in the most efficient and effective way possible so I can invest more of my valuable time doing the things I love with the people I love. Because when I FEEL and LOOK my best I attack life with a renewed sense of clarity, passion and purpose... being lean, healthy and muscular becomes easy.
