Should You Take Fitness Advice From The Big Guy? | Stick to Fitness EP 20

Hymsuen Liu Episode 20

In episode 20 of the Stick to Fitness podcast, hosts Hymsuen Liu and Archie Collings dive into the age-old question: Should you take fitness advice from the big guy in the gym? They explore why people are often drawn to the biggest lifter in the room and whether his advice is truly worth following.

Hymsuen and Archie discuss the appeal of personal anecdotes from experienced lifters, acknowledging that there’s only so much you can learn from books...  sometimes you need to practice what you preach to understand the nuances. However, they also question whether this advice is based on solid information or just "bro science" that only works for that individual.

Hymsuen emphasises that personal anecdotes aren’t always enough to help others and he shares his own experiences with clients.

The conversation takes a personal turn as Hymsuen talks about his attempt to train calves every day, inspired by Ben Pakulski's calf program, and what he learned from that experience.

Join Hymsuen and Archie for a thoughtful and insightful discussion on the value of fitness advice from fellow gym-goers and how to discern what’s truly useful for your own fitness journey.

Tune in to learn how to separate valuable fitness advice from the myths and make informed decisions about your training!
