The MASS team is taking this week off, so we’re bringing you a special pre-recorded episode of Office Hours. This video comes from Volume 6, Issue 7 of the MASS Research Review. In the fitness industry many claim that with their system, supplement, or coaching, you can have your lean, dream body 24/7. While some get really lean, few, including bodybuilders, maintain a shredded physique year round. Why is this? Are there inevitable physiological consequences that make it very difficult to stay really lean, or are people just doing it wrong? In this audio discussion, Dr. Helms (who is joined by Dr. Trexler) takes a nuanced look at the challenges associated with getting (and staying lean), and some of the limiting factors that threaten our ability to stay shredded for extended periods of time. We'll be back to live episodes at 7pm (eastern time) on Wednesday, March 6th. If you'd like to submit a question for a future episode, please use this link: https://forms.gle/9Ah39mefs8cuVa9H7
