How to Build Muscle This Fall: 7 Rules That Actually Matter

About this episode

Fall is a good time to reset your training goals. But if building muscle is the priority, what actually matters: the perfect workout split, more days in the gym, heavier weights, or simply sticking with a plan? In this solo episode, Jesse shares seven practical rules for building muscle while managing work, family, and everything else on your calendar. He covers realistic three-, four-, and five-day training schedules, challenging sets, progressive overload, and tracking progress without getting impatient. He also shares his approach to protein, calories, cardio, recovery, and supplements. Jesse walks through his own fall program and explains why an advanced five-day routine isn't necessary for everyone.
