Apply To Work With Martin 1:1: https://form.typeform.com/to/LpyFFT85 Description: If your muscle gain has stalled, this one's for you. Martin breaks down why building muscle gets harder after 35, and why it's not really about age, it's about still training like you're in your 20s. He covers how many sets you actually need per week, why training to failure is holding most people back, and why your body can only recover or adapt, never both at once. Plus how he uses resistance bands between sessions to speed up recovery, and why eating enough matters just as much as training.
