There’s a lot of good coaches within TBJP, we all hold ourselves to a high standard which reflects in our services and our clients.

When looking for a coach you can talk with them, and even their clients to get a good feel on a right fit for you.

Considering your age and wanting to keep your social life a priority, you can schedule them in weekly and just adjust your diet and cardio around it accordingly to accommodate your rate of loss. And the meals off you can also order something that aligns with your goals and typical meal

Top set back off is still straight sets. How to decide if you want to do a reduced weight on your second set depends on the rep range you hit for your first set. Ex if my goal is 8-10 and I fail at 8, I’m going to reduce the weight for my second set

It is doable, I did it with legs for years. It just depends if your other body parts can afford to take a backseat in terms of volume and still maintain their progress

Definitely common. I personally wouldn’t use it or have clients use it

I personally do not supplement with extra potassium and never have throughout 10+ years competing as a pro. Not saying it doesn’t have its place.
Have you had labs and seen what your potassium level is?

I personally like to split it : session 1: quads, session 2: glutes, session 3: hamstrings

I personally would not have a hip thrust at all four sessions
I want to set it up in a way I can recover and progress session to session, and keep joint integrity in mind as well

Very minor differences and honestly not something to be overthought in your case. Be consistent with your sources and make the changes each time your coach makes the changes

I think this is when learning personal feedback and tracking things as you go along and responding day to day comes in
If this were me, I would just take it day by day. If I am progressing then I just don’t mess with anything, if I’m feeling negative affects then I adjust which a good place would be the direct cardio

The main thing for you man is just going to be consistency. Find the training split you enjoy, the clean foods you like to eat, and stick to this consistently over time and see what it yields, after that you can start breaking it down into phases from there if you need to do a cut etc

Has this just started occurring recently or is it a consistent common thing for you?

Chicken, higher percent beef, rice, potato, oats

Just leave out the extra stuff like sauces, seasonings etc

I don’t like the lean forward approach myself either like Meg has said, and exactly as she has suggested is what I personally do as well

You’re making solid progress! I’d personally keep the protein intact

I wouldn’t call you fat at all and by the looks of it I’d say you’re fine to continue your current phase, but by the feedback of the BG and training would say orherwise
I am curious what your food sources are, daily water intake, and any current cardio?
