    What should you do when your beginner strength program stops working?

    Episode notes

    Read excerpt

    Back pain makes a lot of people stop lifting altogether. Matt Reynolds argues that, in many cases, that is exactly the wrong response.

If your value as a fitness coach is simply choosing exercises, sets, reps, and progressions, that part of the job is rapidly becoming commoditized. In this episode of Mondays with Matt, Matt Reynolds explains why that does not mean coaching is dead.

    Episode notes · Neutral tone

    Read excerpt

    Getting older doesn't mean you need to stop training hard. In this episode of Mondays with Matt, Matt Reynolds explains what really changes with strength training after 40—and what stays exactly the same. Progressive overload still matters.
