Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

PRO MUSCLE Q&A - Just Kev 4
Q: How do you integrate strongman or powerlifting movements into a bodybuilding program?
He explains two paths: for lifters, mix bodybuilding blocks into a powerlifting framework (four-day split centered on bench, squat, deadlift, overhead press with bodybuilding accessories); for lifestyle lifters, incorporate carries, yokes, and other events into conditioning or back days, ensuring the split supports grip and conditioning work.
PRO MUSCLE Q&A - Just Kev 4
Q: What's your approach for post-show recovery and transitioning back into an off-season?
He describes a phased rebound strategy: keep some levels while backing off, gradually increase calories with high-carb days to reset appetite and energy, and reintroduce training volume and cardio progressively to avoid fat regain; the general principle is to avoid rapid reversion and to rebuild with controlled carb and protein intake.
PRO MUSCLE Q&A - Just Kev 4
Q: What are your experiences with Humalog vs. Lantus, and do you like a mix?
The host emphasizes insulin use as a matter of titration and personal response, noting Lantus for steady blood sugar control and Humalog for rapid nutrient delivery. He cautions that Humalog can be useful intra- and post-workout, while Lantus helps maintain stability over longer periods, and he advocates adjusting approaches based on carbohydrate intake and individual blood sugar responses.
Pro Muscle Q&A - Just Kev 3
Q: Do you think you would have reached pro-level if injuries hadn't happened?
He acknowledges genetics and injuries as limiting factors but emphasizes that his approach to growth—coaching, consistency, and optimizing diet—was central; even with setbacks, focusing on improving year-over-year and coaching others remains a core theme.
Pro Muscle Q&A - Just Kev 3
Q: What is your view on the best off-season vs prep dosing approach?
The host notes that many coaches and competitors align dives between off-season and prep dosages, using cruises strategically to maintain tissue, support recovery, and resensitize the body; he also highlights the idea of gradually adjusting dosages rather than a blunt shift, to preserve gains and reduce tissue loss.
