Description

In this episode of The FitBod Blueprint, Tyler kicks things off by celebrating his 36th birthday and sharing an exciting new training goal—deadlifting 500+ pounds. He discusses his switch to Westside Barbell programming, incorporating max effort and dynamic effort days, and how it’s a new challenge after years of powerlifting and bodybuilding. 

Phil and Tyler then dive into another round of Date, Marry, Eliminate, this time focusing on chest and shoulder fly variations: 

• For shoulders: They debate between dumbbell, cable, and band lateral raises, breaking down the best resistance profiles, time efficiency, and pump potential.
• For chest: They battle it out between incline dumbbell flys, pec deck flys, and cable flys, discussing stretch, contraction, and ease of use in different setups.
