    2026 Muscle Growth: Fixing the Mistakes Everyone Made Last Year | J3U Podcast Ep. 211

    2025 was supposed to be the most science-driven era of hypertrophy training — but instead, much of the “science-based” conversation turned into rigid dogma. In this episode, John Jewett and Luke unpack what actually happened, why black-and-white rules took over the internet, and what lifters and coaches should carry forward into 2026 if the goal is maximal muscle growth. They break down the biggest misapplications that dominated training discourse this year: the “4–8 reps only” narrative, confusion around training to failure, the misunderstood idea of “growing at maintenance,” and how lengthened partials became a one-size-fits-all prescription. The core message is clear — research is valuable, but only when applied with context. Exercise selection, fatigue management, skill level, risk tolerance, and long-term programming realities all matter if evidence is going to translate into real progress. This episode is a practical reminder that being truly science-minded doesn’t mean chasing rules — it means learning how to apply data intelligently in the real world. 🎟️ Save 20% on ANY J3U Program with code J3UPOD 👉 https://j3u.site All J3U Programs 🏋️‍♀️ Hourglass (Female): https://j3u.site/hourglass 💪 X-Frame (Male & Female): https://j3u.site/xframe 🏆 Olympia Prep: https://j3u.site/olympia 🎓 Courses Level 1 — Foundations of Evidence-Based Bodybuilding → https://j3u.site/level1 Applied Hypertrophy Optimization → https://j3u.site/aho Female Physique Module → https://j3u.site/female 🏋️ Get Coaching From J3U https://j3u.site/coaching 💪 Join the Community 📩 Weekly education emails → https://j3u.site/newsletter 🧠 Coaching forums → https://j3u.site/forum

    If I could only do ONE Exercise Per Muscle- Upper Body | J3U Podcast Ep. 210

    If you could only pick one exercise per muscle group to maximize hypertrophy, what would you choose—and which “go-to” movements are actually overrated? In this episode of the J3 University Podcast, John Jewett and co-host Luke Miller continue the series (following last week’s upper-body breakdown) by covering lower body and arm training through a practical lens: biomechanics, repeatability, and long-term sustainability. They move from spinal erectors through glutes, quads, hamstrings, calves, biceps, and triceps—explaining why certain patterns are easier to progress, which setups hold up best over time, and where popular choices (like rack pulls, walking lunges, seated calf raises, and more) often fall short depending on the individual. The core message stays consistent: there’s no universal “best” exercise—only the best option for your structure, goal, and ability to execute it consistently. 🎟️ Save 20% on ANY J3U Program with code J3UPOD 👉 https://j3u.site All J3U Programs 🏋️‍♀️ Hourglass (Female): https://j3u.site/hourglass 💪 X-Frame (Male & Female): https://j3u.site/xframe 🏆 Olympia Prep: https://j3u.site/olympia 🎓 Courses Level 1 — Foundations of Evidence-Based Bodybuilding → https://j3u.site/level1 Applied Hypertrophy Optimization → https://j3u.site/aho Female Physique Module → https://j3u.site/female 🏋️ Get Coaching From J3U https://j3u.site/coaching 💪 Join the Community 📩 Weekly education emails → https://j3u.site/newsletter 🧠 Coaching forums → https://j3u.site/forum

    If I could only do ONE Exercise Per Muscle- Lower Body | J3U Podcast Ep. 209

    What’s the single best exercise for building muscle in each upper-body muscle group—and which popular movements are actually overrated? In this episode of the J3 University Podcast, John Jewett and co-host Luke Miller break down their top upper-body exercise picks using a clear, systems-based framework focused on stimulus quality, repeatability, and long-term sustainability. They walk through what truly defines a “great” exercise, then apply that lens to chest, delts, upper back, and lats—highlighting where machines outperform free weights, why certain classics fall short for hypertrophy, and how individual structure and longevity should guide exercise selection. This is a practical, coach-to-coach discussion designed to help athletes and coaches make smarter programming decisions that hold up over time. 🎟️ Save 20% on ANY J3U Program with code J3UPOD 👉 https://j3u.site All J3U Programs 🏋️‍♀️ Hourglass (Female): https://j3u.site/hourglass 💪 X-Frame (Male & Female): https://j3u.site/xframe 🏆 Olympia Prep: https://j3u.site/olympia 🎓 Courses Level 1 — Foundations of Evidence-Based Bodybuilding → https://j3u.site/level1 Applied Hypertrophy Optimization → https://j3u.site/aho Female Physique Module → https://j3u.site/female 🏋️ Get Coaching From J3U https://j3u.site/coaching 💪 Join the Community 📩 Weekly education emails → https://j3u.site/newsletter 🧠 Coaching forums → https://j3u.site/forum

    The Most Overrated Ideas in Fat Loss | J3U Podcast Ep.208

    Most fat loss advice is either overrated or misunderstood—and it can cost you weeks in a dieting phase or contest prep. In this episode, Luke and I break down common “fat loss hacks” and explain what actually moves the needle: adherence, a controlled deficit, protecting training performance, and managing fatigue. We also cover why fasted cardio and intermittent fasting aren’t magic, how to think about carbs and intra-workout nutrition, cardio modality selection, protein targets, and the fundamentals that consistently produce the best results.

    How to Become a Pro Bodybuilder | J3U Podcast Ep.207

    Most amateurs train hard, eat well, and still never reach IFBB Pro status. In this episode, Luke and I break down the real reasons talented bodybuilders stall at the amateur level. We cover controlled aggression, training skill, lifestyle constraints, offseason comfort, and why long-term consistency—not short bursts of effort—is what actually drives elite-level progress. 🎟️ Save 20% on ANY J3U Program with code J3UPOD 👉 https://j3u.site   All J3U Programs 🏋️‍♀️ Hourglass (Female): https://j3u.site/hourglass 💪 X-Frame (Male & Female): https://j3u.site/xframe 🏆 Olympia Prep: https://j3u.site/olympia 🎓 Courses Level 1 — Foundations of Evidence-Based Bodybuilding → https://j3u.site/level1 Applied Hypertrophy Optimization → https://j3u.site/aho Female Physique Module → https://j3u.site/female 🏋️ Get Coaching From J3U https://j3u.site/coaching   💪 Join the Community 📩 Weekly education emails → https://j3u.site/newsletter 🧠 Coaching forums → https://j3u.site/forum

    Why Bodybuilders Sleep Worse (And Stay Small Because of It) | J3U Podcast Ep.206

    You can train hard, eat perfectly, and still feel run down… if your sleep is off. In this episode, Luke and I break down why sleep becomes such a common bottleneck for bodybuilders, what’s actually causing it (environment, stress load, stimulants, PED-related sympathetic drive, and sleep apnea), and what you can change tonight to improve sleep quality and recovery. We also cover what to track so you actually know whether sleep is improving, why wearables can be misleading, and the practical “non-flashy” fixes that move the needle the fastest. If your energy is flat, your training performance is slipping, or your physique isn’t responding the way it should… start here.

    Traveling, Holidays, Chaos — How I Still Progress | J3U Podcast Ep. 205

    Progress isn’t built during perfect weeks, it’s built during the chaotic ones. In this episode, John and Luke walk through how to navigate holidays, travel, family events, and busy seasons without letting weeks of progress slip away. Instead of pretending life won’t get messy, they show you how to build a process that still holds when it does. They discuss: Why different athletes tolerate “off-plan” time very differently The danger of comparing your flexibility to someone else’s genetics or lifestyle How to plan around holidays so you can enjoy family time and stay aligned with your goals Practical strategies for flying, changing time zones, and long travel days Backup food options, weighing in, and tracking steps so you can make informed adjustments How to modify training on the road, when to skip the travel-day session, and when to pivot to different splits If holidays and travel have been the recurring hole in your offseason or lifestyle phase, this episode will help you create standards and systems that survive real life.

    Lean Gaining vs Sloppy Bulking | J3U Podcast Ep. 204

    Most bulks fail long before training does. In this episode, John and Luke break down why so many lifters either push body fat far too high or stay so lean they stall progress completely. The goal is finding the middle ground that actually builds muscle without losing control. They walk through the common mistakes made during massing phases, how to set a productive rate of gain, and what the post-show phase should look like if you want 20–24 weeks of real progress. They also dig into the lifestyle factors that quietly determine whether your surplus is productive at all — digestion, sleep, stress load, cardio, food accuracy, and training performance. If you want a clearer framework for running a lean, efficient offseason, this episode will help you rethink how you grow. Tune in every week for new episodes from the J3 University Podcast.
