In this episode, Layne interviews James Krieger, someone we consider to be at the forefront of evidence-based nutrition and training recommendations. He has a master's degree in nutrition and a second master's degree in exercise physiology. He has published research in journals such as the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition and the Journal of Applied Physiology. He runs weightology.net and has his own research review (that we are subscribed to). He is also a professional day trader and co-founder of FitProFinancial, which specifically helps fitness pros manage their finances.

Layne and James go DEEP into the latest science on training for hypertrophy as well as fat loss. They discuss the role of volume and new concepts such as volume cycling. This episode is one of my (Layne) personal favorites and it actually made me adjust my training based on some of the ideas that were discussed. You definitely do not want to miss this one!
