Dr. Andy Galpin: How to Build Strength, Muscle Size & Endurance

My guest is Dr. Andy Galpin, Professor of Kinesiology at California State University, Fullerton and one of the foremost experts in the world on the science and application of methods to increase strength, hypertrophy and endurance performance. We discuss the fundamental principles of strength and hypertrophy training and building endurance, the mechanisms underlying them and specific protocols to optimize training and recovery. We also discuss hydration, sleep, nutrition, supplements and mental tools that can be leveraged to accelerate adaptations leading to enhanced strength, muscle growth and/or endurance.
