Ep. 145 - 4 Game-Changing Gym Mistakes I Wish I Knew Sooner
13/09/2025 Duración: 20minI used to think more sweat = more progressBut the truth? Most of my early workouts were ego-driven, chaotic, and barely moved the needle.In this video, I’m breaking down the 4 biggest shifts that changed everything about how I train today:- Why rest is your secret weapon (not the enemy)- How I went from chasing burn to building real strength- The actual reason your progress is stalling (hint: not effort)- The split that works for real life, not bodybuilders or influencersIf you’ve ever felt stuck, sore, or like you’re spinning your wheels in your workouts, this one’s for you.Fixing these mistakes helped me drop 60+ lbs, build muscle, and finally train in a way that lasts — and I teach the same approach to busy parents inside Cal Fit.
