Sunday, 7 September, 2025
Episode Shownotes: Ben Pakulski opens the vault on his insane 18-month jump from 242 to 293 lbs of stage-ready muscle. He breaks down exactly how he trained (high-skill execution, targeted volume, real failure), how he ate (predictable “Groundhog Day” nutrition), and how he recovered to handle more work than most think possible. You’ll hear the mindset that fueled it, discipline, aggression in a safe container, and ruthless focus, and the biomechanics lessons that changed everything after a career-threatening knee issue. If you want a practical blueprint for serious size without guesswork, this is it. 5 Bullet Points: The 18-month strategy behind 50 lbs of muscle Why one perfect exercise beats five mediocre ones How to set volume by recovery, not ego Groundhog Day nutrition for predictable progress The mindset shift that multiplies training results Ready for the next level?
