Episode 40: Getting Too Fat? Lets Mini-Cut!

Episode 40: Getting Too Fat? Lets Mini-Cut!

In this episode of J3 University, Luke and I discuss the ins and outs of implementing mini cuts. Often we
see offseason get into subpar territory with body fat levels getting too high and we need a phase to knock
off some fat and regain offseason traction. This same phase might be in place as a prep before a contest
prep if not in a good spot. Join us for a listen as we cover how and when to set this up.
