My Intro:

I have listened to Daniel Gastelu's (Ph.D., trainer, researcher, author) Seminar series on Developing Awesome Muscles and I believe there is a good deal of information of value in there for bodybuilders, powerlifters, physique athletes and even those looking to just get ripped.

These are free to stream or download and packed with information. They range in time from as little as 15 minutes to as much as an hour...on average being 30 minutes. (I will show you how to cut 33% of the time off if your time is precious.) There are no ads and no fluff.

I want to know if anyone would be interested in listening to the segments Daniel has presented, one at a time and discussing them...I will answer any questions anyone has about the content. I am corresponding and will be talking with Daniel and if there is anything anyone wants to know more about, I am sure I can get him to cover it.

There are 22 topics from supplementation and nutrition for fat loss and muscle gains to some specific methods and techniques for maximal performance and development.

I will highlight the key points as I see them and try to clarify anything that I feel is presented in a complicated fashion.

Everyone else is free to do the same as well as discuss the points, ask questions, debate, and together work out practical scenarios for applying these things to our training to get the most of the cutting edge science that is presented.

P.S. Daniel builds on ideas as he goes through the series and I feel that listening in order is very helpful in getting some of the insights he sharing.

This is an intro seminar to lessons of Exercise Physiology. Dan offers some points to consider for body composition analysis and somatotype. Dan also discusses geneotypes, phenotypes, and phenotypic plasticity (range of gene expression), a research update on the ergogenics effects of leucine-rich whey protein supplements, and exercise physiology insights about stretching.

Highlights:
What Exercise Physiology is
How to apply information learned
Body composition based on limited references
Taking Body composition tests with skinfold calipers
When cutting, people tend to mistakenly cut back on heavy lifting and lose Fast Twitch Muscle fiber
Instead, preserve Lean Body Mass as you cut
Finding what works for you
When results stop don't just train harder...
Overtraining...cortisol
Taking time off and benefits to growth
Leucine use by muscle while training and post training
Stretching and relaxation in muscle
Too much flexibility is not always good

If you want to talk about anything you hear...post a comment in this tread!
Remember this is a moderated forum so comments may not immediately appear.

There are 22 topics in this series and I will put the links to them in here later...
