VOTED TOP 3 BODYBUILDING PODDY IN WORLD | MG’S BABY NEWS | LAT TRAINING | INTENSITY SETS | EP#162
Wednesday, 3 December, 2025
This week we celebrate the Prep Coach Podcast being voted in the top three bodybuilding podcasts internationally, catch up with MG on his first proper family holiday since Talia was born, and share the news of baby girl number two. Then we get straight into back training, cluster sets, partial reps, and how to tell if you’re genuinely under-recovered or just sore and soft.We cover:✅ Our top-3 international podcast ranking — massive gratitude to everyone who listens, shares and supports the show.✅ The intention behind the pod — honest education, real conversations and giving natural bodybuilding athletes and coaches a place to learn and level up together.✅ MG’s baby news — he and Maeve are expecting their second daughter on 4 May.✅ Lengthened vs shortened partial reps — lat pulldown and leg extension in the lengthened position vs hip thrust pulses and one-and-a-quarter reps at the top.✅ DOMS vs under-recovered — using your very first working set as the honest audit on whether you’re good to go or truly cooked.✅ Why DOMS ≠ damaged muscle fibres — understanding that soreness is largely fluid and inflammation, driven by disrupted homeostasis, muscle spindles and nociceptors.✅ Training with soreness safely — matching your warm-up range of motion to previous sessions and using movement to free up tight, “swollen” tissue.✅ When to change the plan — examples like skipping big hip hinges (RDLs/stiff-legs) when hamstrings are too tight, and opting for ham curls, hypers or reduced-ROM work instead.✅ Building better judgement over time — learning when to push through discomfort and when you’re just digging a deeper recovery hole.🎧 Real talk on our top-3 podcast ranking, MG’s growing family and training smart around DOMS and intensity techniques.LISTEN 🎧Spotify - https://open.spotify.com/show/0ex8tkAzDHEBVZVK6Js5ANFOLLOW 👇PREP COACH PODCAST - https://www.instagram.com/prepcoachpodcast/Michael Trimboli - https://www.instagram.com/michaeltrimbolifit/Scott Morrell - https://www.instagram.com/powerhouse_sc/Michael Galante - https://www.instagram.com/coachmg_ont/DisclaimerThe information presented is for informational and entertainment purposesonly and is not intended as medical advice nor is it a substitute for professionaladvice, diagnosis, or treatment of any disease or condition.
