Time Stamps: 01:05 Maintenance Phase importance and application, teaching clients to live 17:35 If you have a good diet, what supplements do you need? Or would benefit from? 32:40 How to set up a flexible diet plan for success
Martin simplified the best approach towards flexible dieting by sating to make up the BMR calories with whole source foods, then using the remaining calories exerted from physical activity or TDEE, to be made from poptarts of what have you.. very great vid
These videos are the best! More Martin please! He explain things so that us "layman can actually understand what he is saying! Thanks for all you do revive stronger!
Awesome and educational as usual, quick question: during maintenance, do I have to ingest maintenance calories on a daily basis, or can I alternate higher calorie days (gym) with lower calorie (rest) days, provided that my average daily intake for the week comes out at maintenance? Cheers
Hey Steve! Can you point me to more info on what Martin was talking about at 3:10 to 4:00 minutes? About how if your muscle glycogen levels are low but you're in a surplus you won't put on body fat if fat intake is low. Can't get my head around that.... He's suggesting that you won't put on body fat in a surplus if you don't eat fat, if you deplete muscle glycogen stores first?
Steve: That was great interview.McDonald certainly made me think about bulking a la Isreatel. Speaking about McDonald and bulking, why don't you have Lyle McDonald talk about his Generic Bulking Program, in terms of his structure and progression model (there's a few variations he suggests). He definitively has some different views on hypertrophy.
@@ReviveStronger thanks a lot man, does the maintenance phase helps the body to adapt to new lifestyle.... What I wanted to know is that, imagine a skinny fat guy... He does his cut phase and now is lean and ready to bulk up.. when he starts to eat more he gets his pot belly back, but utilizing this maintenance phase does the body adapts and later when he bulks up, he can eat more like a regular person without having bloated tummy....??
I deleted it because, although I wasn't privy to whatever conflict occurred between them, it stands to reason --considering they cover the same ground, who made a name for himself first; both having the same last name probably doesn't help (and probably leads to "brand name confusion"). Thinking back, I think Martin denying reading Lyle's related ebook, was revealing of an underlying conflict, but I'm just guessing. I also didn't want to stir the pot against Lyle, considering I've really learned tons from his online articles. My whole warm-up and some of my progression models are straight out of his recommendations. Even my session organization is similar to his GBR, not because I copied it but because I found it to be most effective. By the way, why don't you have Lyle on in regards to his Generic Bulking Routine (GBR), the structure, and the ideas behind it. Look into it. There's a long forum thread and a pdf ebook on it. Lyle provides info on how to structure the routines (something Mike I doesn't), a couple of progression models (really rep ranges). He never went too much into periodizing GBR specifically, although he has a lengthy article series on how to periodize for bodybuilding, and he did write an article (or Q&A) on how to change the weekly structure once you're advanced- intermediate. What I find interesting is that Lyle suggests a 2 week run-up while Mike I suggests 4 weeks. Furthermore, Lyle suggests adding weight past reaching your RM, while Mike I suggests ending the meso-cycle at @1 RIR or @0 RIR, so there's lots to cover. And of course, there's the issue of how frequently to change exercises, on which there is disagreement. You probably don't want to mention Mike I while interviewing Lyle, but regardless I think Lyle has a lot to offer, independent of Helms, Israetel, and Schoenfeld.
Minute 18; I am so tired of hearing folks saying that if you "eat a balanced diet" you don't need supplements. Have you really tracked what you eat and tired to eat a "balanced diet?" It's difficult if not impossible. "Eating a balanced diet" is doctor dogma and not based in contemporary reality. I have tracked everything I've eaten for eight years -- there are inexpensive programs that do that well. Buy one, use it. Only on a rare day does it even approach "balanced" and rarely is it balanced. You also ignore older folks, as if they don't exist and their nutritional needs at 60 are the same as when they are 20. Almost daily I must take potassium and magnesium supplements particularly potassium. Half the time I need half a zinc tablet and or manganese, too. Also not on your radar are genetic variations. Genetically I have several under-performing vitamin D genes so I must supplement with 10,000 IUs a day to get moderately acceptable D3 levels (and I live in Florida!) On the other hand I must not take Vitamin E supplements. I have a gene that does not clear Vitamin E well so the build up can cascade into other issues. The point is not my -- or anyone's -- personal dietary issues but rather "eating a balanced diet" is a throw away, low-resolution, pseudo-advice that seems reasonable but in reality simply is not. If you want to eliminate misguidance in your professional life start with that very empty, misleading phrase. Get a program, track your food, and see how far off base you are. (And for the record I am 68, male, 5-foot-9, 160 pounds, 15% body fat, I lift six days a week, cycle twice a week for a total of 66 miles, swim two miles a week, sit in a sauna at least four times for 20-plus minutes, usually 24 to 27, sometimes 30, occasionally 40 minutes. It is cardio and good for you. And I walk at least eight hours per weekend. I've been keto since 2006 and owned the original Ketogenic diet dotcom. I do watch what I eat and orchestrating a "balanced diet" is very difficult. So yes, I do indeed supplement.)

Thanks Paul. Glad you liked it and agree with what you're saying ):
These videos are the best! More Martin please! He explain things so that us "layman can actually understand what he is saying! Thanks for all you do revive stronger!
Thanks man and yeah, we need to get him on again!
- Pascal
This man is terrific. Just a very versed and experienced individual- says it like it is!!
He is!!
Too long ago :)
- Pascal
More videos with him! Please, subbed.
We'll try to get him on another time
Wonderful podcast, thanks guys!
Always again and thanks for the support!
Awesome and educational as usual, quick question: during maintenance, do I have to ingest maintenance calories on a daily basis, or can I alternate higher calorie days (gym) with lower calorie (rest) days, provided that my average daily intake for the week comes out at maintenance? Cheers
You can alternate, however, I'd recommend not doing it too drastically
- Pascal
i like this Martin fellow
We do as well :)
Great podcast as always.
Thanks for listening!
Loved this guys. Nice work :)

He's suggesting that you won't put on body fat in a surplus if you don't eat fat, if you deplete muscle glycogen stores first?
I think he's strictly talking about a few refeed days? I'm really not sure tbh, the best would be to ask him directly!
- Coach Jess
I enjoy cake baking mix for improving my sports performance
Great flipping channel man
Thanks!
Does this guy have his own podcast? If so whats it called please.
He had but isn't doing it anymore ever since 2016
- Coach Pascal
Revive Stronger thanks for replying, feel bad getting so much free content off you! 😂
Martin has too few podcasts... I think a weekly podcast with him on is the least you both could do... As a public service of course... :D
Agree, could listen to him for ages
Steve: That was great interview.McDonald certainly made me think about bulking a la Isreatel.

can someone just brief the importance of the maintanence phase....? please
Resensitisation, physiological break for joints/tendons/ligaments, psychological break too, etc.

You should have both McDonalds on at the same time!
Unfortunately, I know for a fact, that this is never going to happen ;)
Weirdly enough I don't see your comment here but in the notifications. From both ends ;)

Yeah buddy!
Lyle makes good points, but has a halting way of speaking that makes him harder to follow
Lyle always makes great points! He's just not that good when it comes to interpersonal stuff
- Pascal
You two look weirdly alike... The nose-cheeks-mouth area, in particular
CeBePuH brits...they all look alike😂
