ParticipantHey Matt,
I think that a video about nutrient timing will be very helpful for a lot of us
Because we see you spacing your carbs across the day in pretty much all of your meals, did you see any benefits to use them just around the workouts and mostly all of them post workout ?
Thanks !
Thomas Couteau
ParticipantHey Michaela ! Yes a video about training will be very interesting !
Are you doing planned deload ? Because with all that intensity your central nervous system need some recovery time to time no ? If yes, what are you doing ?Thanks !

ParticipantHey Matt !
How Shaun is going with this lower frequency program ?
Because he was training with a super high frequency in the past (3x chest and back per week), better recovery, prevent injury ?Thomas Couteau
ParticipantHey Michaela ! What’s you current training atm ?
Do you have the same type of program in the off season vs prep ?Thomas Couteau
ParticipantHey Matt !
When you do compound mouvements for triceps (dips, close grip bench), did you count them in your weekly chest volume as well ?
Same thing for RDL on hamstring day etc
Second question is about working around weak body parts (Chest in my case), what will be the most interesting set up in your opinion ? Or another one of i’m wrong
hams and calves (heavy rdl)
chest and triceps
rest
back and biceps
quads and abs
shoulders + 2 Chest mouvements
rest
or
hams and calves (heavy rdl)
chest and biceps
rest
back and abs
quads and abs
shoulders and triceps (with dips and close grip bench)
rest
thanks for the reply

ParticipantThis one will be epic ! Especially the training aspect ! Instagram content is already very motivating, can’t wait for this one too !
Thomas Couteau
ParticipantThis is awesome ! Was waiting for this type of thread for long time ! Shaun is an amazing athlete !
Thomas Couteau
ParticipantYour physique looks fucking great Matt !
I’ve seen on instagram that you start training upper chest with your shoulder workout, can you explain your new split ?
Do you think that we can do this offseason to improve weak body parts ?
Thomas Couteau
ParticipantHey man ! That’s awesome good luck with your prep !
Can you talk about your workouts ? Type of split, way of training etc
And how your fat are so low on training days ?
Thomas Couteau
ParticipantHey Matt !
Do you plan everytime your workouts with specific days of the week (monday = chest and biceps) or do you prefer using rotation like 2 on, 1 off for example with your regular split ?
Thanks !

ParticipantHey Matt !
Quick training question, when training a lacking body part (hard to focus on good contractions/feeling the muscle), do you think it can be interesting to start with a machine and switch to the heavy compound after ?Example for chest, start with a decline chest press focus on feeling the muscle/hard contractions (8-12 reps), after that some heavy incline db (6-8reps), some heavy dips (6-8 reps) and finish with with cable flyes focus again on good contractions/pump work (everything with 2-3 sets focus on execution/load)
Thanks man !

ParticipantHey Matt ! Thanks for your answer about insulin sensitivity !
My second question is more about training, on a shoulder and triceps day, do you see any problem to start with Triceps compounds (close grip floor press and dips) before hitting the shoulders ?
This compound are also used to do a secondary work for chest (lagging muscle) on a 4 day split (chest and biceps, back and abs, rest, shoulders and Triceps, Legs, rest)
Thomas Couteau
ParticipantHey Matt !
What’s your tricks to improve insulin sensitivity?
First I’ve decrease my carb intake (not the calories) and up the fats ratio
start to include apple cidar vinegar at night or post meal with high fat
start consuming carbs only pre, intra and post and my pump is better, more lean and zero problem with energy
And be more careful with how i digest food
if you can give me more advices will be really appreciated! Thanks!

ParticipantAnthony, you can find a video on this particular subject in the “all videos” section ! Name “best training split” or something like that !
Thomas Couteau
ParticipantHey Matt !
With a classic training split, every body part 1x/week.
If chest is lagging, do you think it’s more interesting to train triceps with compound like close grip bench, dips etc to had a little bit more stim on this area ?
same thing for back with stiff legged dead on leg day for example.
Thanks for your answer !
