Should I do isolation lifts for glutes or are compounds enough? If more volume equals more hypertrophy, instead of letting my reps drop set to set with the same load, should I lower the load set to set in order to keep my reps higher?Links and resources:

Joe Klemczewski, PhD has earned degrees in physical therapy, health, nutrition, literary journalism, health education, and social psychology.
In this episode, we delve into the psychology of individuals who successfully lose fat and maintain their results:
Which personality traits do successful dieters have? How do you cultivate these traits if they donât come naturally to you? What are the real causes of obesity (hint: itâs more than âlazinessâ)? What can we learn from bodybuilders, who take fat loss to an extreme, and what do they do that a non-competitor shouldnât? ⊠And more!Links and resources:

Please be aware that this episode features detailed discussions of disordered eating and over-exercising behaviours, very low scale weight, and very low caloric intakes. Listen at your own discretion.
