Understanding the Skinny Fat Body Type
Hey everyone, I’ve been reading a lot about the "skinny fat" body type and wanted to share what I’ve learned. Essentially, it describes someone who appears slim but has a high body fat percentage, especially around the midsection. If you're struggling with this, don’t worry – it’s quite common. The key is to focus on both diet and exercise. Incorporating strength training along with a balanced diet can help reduce body fat and increase muscle mass. Cardio alone might not be enough. Anyone here have experience with this? What strategies have worked for you?

Question regarding training volume for chest
Hello! I just watched one of the latest videos where you suggested training volume of 12-20 sets for targeting a muscle for hypertrophy. My question is I just recently got a dip bar attachment for my power rack, and up until one of your videos on the subject I didn't even realize this was a chest exercise always thought it was primarily triceps. My question is, do I have too much volume here for chest? I am at 24 sets which exceeds the recommended upper band of 20 sets. Here is my current chest exercises, the workout order swaps from week to week Workout b incline x 4 db flys x 4 workout a bench x 4 dips x 4 Workout b incline x 4 db flys x 4 To keep everything here I could also drop a few sets here and there to reduce the total number of sets. For example drop dips from 4 one week to 3 etc.

Training Style question
So I'm 15, Play Basketball, run the mile in track, and might play football. I've been following a bodybuilding training style, the Baki training, but have come across new things saying I should train for more athletic things since I do sports. One person I looked at, Garage Strength, said my program should be an Upper, Lower, Plyometric/athletic, dynamic leg day, and dynamic upper body, https://www.garagestrength.com/blogs/news/arm-day-leg-day he has talked about it in some of his videos but this is where I found it most organized, the 5 days one is about 3/4 of the way down. Do you all think this is good or complete crap?
