    Training Series Resurrected: Lateral Delts | ETP#214

    In ETP#214 we are bringing back the Training Series with a dedicated deep dive on lateral deltoids. We covered shoulders back in episode 138 in December 2023, but the lateral delt segment got squeezed into the final 10 minutes. A long-time listener called that out and requested the full treatment, so here it is. Covered in this dedicated lateral delts training episode: Why the lateral delt deserves its own episode and what we missed in ETP#138Aaron's favorite foundational cuing for lateral delt stimulationDumbbell variations: seated, incline, sideways, standing, leaning out, leaning in, upright row/high pull, face pull, and Y-raiseCable variations by height and orientation: dual behind the back, dual in the scapular plane, single arm, lying Y-raise, and the case for a bottom ROM focusDedicated lateral raise machines, what to look for in the design, and why the Gymleco Standing Side Lateral stands outShort vs. lengthened pairings and why we are big fans of same-muscle-group supersets for lateral deltsTimestamps: 00:00:00 Introduction and Updates 00:05:47 Transitioning from Bali: Reflections and Changes 00:09:46 Understanding the Challenges of Training Lateral Delts 00:11:44 Exploring Dumbbell Variations for Lateral Delts 00:17:26 Innovations in Lateral Raise Techniques 00:23:26 Short vs. Lengthened Movements for Lateral Delts 00:29:00 Eccentric Loading and Joint Integrity in Training 00:31:48 Mastering Lateral Raises: Techniques and Variations 00:39:09 The Power of Using Cables in Your Lateral Delt Training 00:54:24 Better and Worse Machines for Lateral Delt Development 01:00:32 Same Muscle Group Supersets: Maxing the Lateral Delts Work 1:1 with Aaron ⬇️ https://strakernutritionco.com/nutrition-coaching-apply-now/ Done For You Client Check-In System for Coaches ⬇️ https://strakernutritionco.com/macronutrient-reporting-check-in-template/ Paragon Training Methods Programming ⬇️ https://paragontrainingmethods.com Follow Bryan's Evolved Training Systems Programming ⬇️ https://evolvedtrainingsystems.com Find Us on Social Media  ⬇️ IG | @Eat.Train.Prosper IG | @bryanboorstein IG | @aaron_straker YT | EAT TRAIN PROSPER PODCAST

    How We Eat and Train While Traveling | ETP#213

    In ETP#213 we get into the realities of training and eating while traveling, something both of us deal with regularly. We cover Bryan's recent training reflections, Aaron's gym experiences across Shanghai and Bangkok, and the techniques and equipment discoveries that came out of those sessions. We also get into how we structure training goals during travel blocks and, just as importantly, how we handle nutrition, from in-trip strategies to resetting your baseline when you get home.

    March 2026 Q&A | ETP#212

    In Episode 212 we answer our March Instagram questions across a full spectrum of training and nutrition topics. We cover how we'd approach movement assessments with in-person clients, managing a reverse diet after significant fat loss, and our takeaways from Scott Stevenson's discussion on mind-muscle connection versus training to failure. Same-muscle-group supersets, rep tempo and the fatigue cost of slow negatives, exercise selection consistency, and the hypertrophy merit of low-rep cluster sets with heavy loads. On the nutrition side, we address the macros versus calories debate for body recomposition, how we handle missed rep or RIR targets mid-session, and what it realistically takes to improve abdominal definition at low body fat. Enjoy! Timestamps: 00:01:40 - Why did you hop on TRT? Were you experiencing signs of low test?  00:16:30 - If you train a client in person, what kind of movement screen or assessment would you do?  00:20:14 - Post long diet (down 8kg and ~10% bf so far). Fats are at .6 per kg. Prefer increase in carbs for reverse diet?  00:25:44 - You mentioned Scott Stevenson discussing MMC versus failure. Can you elaborate your takeaways?  00:31:32 - When doing same muscle group supersets (iso to compound), should you take the first movement to failure or stop at 1-3 RIR?  00:35:59 - What’s your perspective on rep tempo? Specifically the negative. I feel like slow negatives are super fatiguing… 00:40:42 - Keep exercises the same or change them frequently? Why?  00:45:20 - What do you think of taking a heavy weight (Like 5-6 RM), and doing a buncha sets of 2-3 reps? Good for hypertrophy?  00:48:43 - You’re def looking bigger and more jacked since TRT. What do you think?  00:54:34 - Order these in terms of systemic stress: Upper body lift, lower body lift, Zone 2 cardio, HIIT cardio.  00:58:55 - If you miss a rep or RIR target, do you prefer to drop weight or rest longer for the next set? 01:01:55 - What is more important for body recomp, Macros or calories? 01:05:56 - How to tighten the abdominal area? 39 years old. Female. 5’2. 112 lbs. 13% body fat but soft abs/no definition. No kids. Lifts 5x week. Cardio 3-4x.

    Making a Case for Intuitive Hypertrophy Progression | ETP#211

    In ETP 211, we dig into Bryan’s recent adventure into his intuitive training Bro Split, and whether ditching the logbook is a sign of experience or a terrible idea. We explore the argument between tracking vs “feeling”, break down the real nuances of progressive overload, and discuss why the stimulus derived might matter more than the absolute weight being used. We also cover how this training strategy might shift depending on where you are in your journey, and why the answers to some of the biggest questions in training aren't as settled as the fitness industry likes to pretend. Timestamps: 00:00 Introduction to Intuitive Training 02:58 Exploring the Bro Split and Recency Bias 06:00 Mental State and Training Frequency Challenges 09:00 Tracking Progress: Intuitive vs. Logbook 14:41 The Nuances of Progressive Overload 20:18 The Importance of Muscle Connection 26:06 Beginners vs. Advanced Training Strategies 29:49 Adjusting Weight for Optimal Progress 33:56 The Importance of Structure for Beginners 35:24 Seasonal Training Approaches 38:48 Transitioning from Tracking to Intuitive Training 42:31 The Role of Connection in Muscle Training 52:57 Exploring the Unknowns of Progressive Overload Work 1:1 with Aaron ⬇️ https://strakernutritionco.com/nutrition-coaching-apply-now/ Done For You Client Check-In System for Coaches ⬇️ https://strakernutritionco.com/macronutrient-reporting-check-in-template/ Paragon Training Methods Programming ⬇️ https://paragontrainingmethods.com Follow Bryan's Evolved Training Systems Programming ⬇️ https://evolvedtrainingsystems.com Find Us on Social Media  ⬇️ IG | @Eat.Train.Prosper IG | @bryanboorstein IG | @aaron_straker YT | EAT TRAIN PROSPER PODCAST

    The Impacts of Your Environment | ETP#210

    Eat Train Prosper 210 is about your environment. And how your environment is either working for you or against you. This week we get into why willpower is largely a losing strategy and how a well-designed environment removes the need for it. We cover ambition contagion, the real cost of where you live and those around you. And why the gym you choose matters more than most people think. If you're constantly fighting yourself to stay consistent, changing your environment might be the actual variable to change the tide in your favor.

    The TRT Episode | ETP#209

    TRT is one of those topics that generates much controversy. You're either being sold on it as the ultimate life upgrade or warned away like you're making some irreversible mistake. Neither is particularly useful. In this episode, we share our own firsthand experiences with TRT. What led us to the decision, how we each thought through it, and what actually happened versus what we expected. We cover the symptom management vs. optimization debate, physical and cognitive changes, energy, what the long-term commitment actually looks like, and fertility, which for a lot of people is the biggest factor of all. Timestamps: 00:00 Introduction to TRT Experiences 06:44 Symptom Management vs. Optimization Culture 12:41 Personal Decision Framework for TRT 30:25 Long-Term Commitment Concerns and Health Risks 36:19 Dependency on TRT and Its Implications 39:39 Concerns About Supply Chain and Access 41:28 Navigating the TRT Landscape 49:34 Physical Changes and Expectations vs. Reality 55:24 Managing Estrogen Levels 57:42 Fertility Considerations with TRT Work 1:1 with Aaron ⬇️ https://strakernutritionco.com/nutrition-coaching-apply-now/ Done For You Client Check-In System for Coaches ⬇️ https://strakernutritionco.com/macronutrient-reporting-check-in-template/ Paragon Training Methods Programming ⬇️ https://paragontrainingmethods.com Follow Bryan's Evolved Training Systems Programming ⬇️ https://evolvedtrainingsystems.com Find Us on Social Media  ⬇️ IG | @Eat.Train.Prosper IG | @bryanboorstein IG | @aaron_straker YT | EAT TRAIN PROSPER PODCAST

    February 2026 Instagram Q&A | ETP#208

    Episode #208 is our Instagram Q&A episode for February 2026. Find us on IG to get your personal training and nutrition questions covered in an upcoming episode! Timestamps: 00:00:28 - Do you like the idea of one main cue for each lift or do you use multiple cues when coaching a lift?  00:02:17 - I’m seeing so many elite natural bodybuilders using unexpectedly light weights for exercises. Seemingly to increase mind muscle connection? 00:07:16 - Bryan, with this brosplit, how many warm-up sets are you performing per exercise? Also, what are the rest periods between sets? 00:09:41 - I was training overhead tricep extension single arm and with EZ bar high volume high frequency. Now I have a tear of rear delt (rotator cuff) pain and can’t do anything overhead pressing without pain. 00:11:57 - Most recent update with TRT please? Impacts on all aspects of life and fitness?  00:16:27 - Heard Dorian discussing weed on the recent Huberman pod. Did you listen? Thoughts?  00:20:15 - You mentioned you talked about your recent experiments with Glucose monitoring on a recent pod. As someone in the pre-diabetic range, I’m curious what you learned about yourself? 00:26:51 - Is there a possibility of overtraining with cardio as well? 00:28:54 - Any update on Aaron’s move to the states? 00:32:54 - What do you think of having a calorie range with minimums for each macro? 00:34:39 - Who are some other people in the fitness space that you really like?  00:37:17 - Can you provide some good cues to take the traps out of delt movements? 00:38:53 - Do you like high or low reps with shoulder movements for clients? 00:40:31 - Do you track calories? I just wanna be jacked but feels like tracking is so neurotic.  00:41:29 - How important are warm-up sets? There’s a big push from some influencers saying they are a waste of time. 00:45:01 - What’s the biggest thing each of you have changed your mind on in the last year? 00:50:37 - Any upper back specific training principles? Lats seem to take over the majority of the time. 00:54:19 - How would you guys design a powerbuilding program? 00:57:29 - What’s a good swap for seated/lying leg curl to hit the short head of hams? Leg machines suck at my gym. 01:00:04 - When I do low-rep work, I sometimes don’t feel my muscles at all. People say the pump doesn’t matter if weight is being moved from A to B. What’s your take on this? 01:03:13 - How do you go about progressing a pyramid set strategy? 01:06:37 - I’ve plateaued on leg extensions (8 reps). Tried more sets, less sets and can’t seem to break thru. Should I try a higher rep range? 01:10:23 - Getting Pregnant, pregnancy, post-kids with children. What fitness and nutrition advice do you have?
