How To Do The Perfect Gym Session

Graham Ambrose and Angus Warburton
About this episode

Angus & Graham discuss the importance of maximising your time in the gym, even with a solid program in place. They emphasise that structured workouts aren’t automatic wins. They explain how you execute, control rest, and challenge yourself that drives results.

Quality of effort trumps time spent. Momentum stems from focused, high-effort training. Real progress comes from creating adaptive demand through progressive overload, perfect form, and near-failure training. Even the best program fails if you’re just going through the motions.
