Best of 2022: Muscle & Hypertrophy Explained with Dr. Stephanie Estima & Guests

This month on the Better show we begin our annual tradition of
looking back throughout the year, to find the Best Of - moments
of 2022. We will be combining clips from an array of guests we
have had on the show to talk about such subjects as Metabolism,
Menstruation & Menopause, Hormones and this week’s
topic…Muscle & Hypertrophy. We will hear from one of our
favourite guests of the year, Sal Di Stefano to speak on the
psychology of fitness and the performance metrics we use. We also
hear from Dr. Phil Maffetone on aerobic training volume, Dr.
Mindy Pelz on fasted and fed workouts along with the use of
creatine and amino acids. We hearken back to our conversation
with Layne Norton, where we discuss why women avoid building
muscle, the psychological rewards of showing up for yourself in
the gym and how it builds grit. We hear from Don Saladino,
trainer to some of the biggest hollywood stars to chat about
physique building for women, their upper body strength, and
lifting heavy around your cycle. Another favourite from 2022,
Robert Sikes (you may know him as Keto Savage) drops some
knowledge about the importance of your build phase, hypertrophy
while on the ketogenic diet and using exogenous ketones. We
thoroughly enjoyed putting this together for you Betties, please
let us know if anything from this episode helped you with your
fitness journey in the comments!
