Training

High Volume vs. Heavy Weight

More often than not, Jo will train with high volume. His workouts typically consist of many sets, which helps him to fully exhaust his muscles.

However, Jo won’t always train like this. He’ll sometimes train with extremely heavy weights, doing a low number of reps and sets. Jo feels that this training split has helped him achieve the best results.

Jo Linder’s Push Workout

Here’s a push workout Joe did in one of his videos;

• Bench Press, 3 pyramid sets, 12-8-5 reps
• Incline Dumbbell Press, 3 sets of 8 reps
• Chest Press Machine, 1 set of 12 reps
• Seated Barbell Overhead Press, 4 sets of 8 reps

“How to train weak bodyparts – start your workout with the weak part. Improve mind-muscle connection, start with low weights, and slow reps to really feel the muscle & increase weight slowly, the better you feel your muscle work, the better the results.”

Nutrition

Jo Linder goes through a clean ‘off-season’ period where he tries to gain as much lean muscle as possible. In addition, he uses this period to take a break from his strict dieting.

However, Jo never goes on a binge, even while in the ‘off-season.’  He doesn’t like going above 10% body fat, as this would have a negative effect on his physique.

Jo is a fan of carb cycling when it comes to burning fat. He only cuts fat when he has an important fitness event coming up. Otherwise, he’ll try to stay at around 9% body fat year-round.

“What motivates you? When I feel down, I look at pictures of people that inspire me, I watch videos of people that inspire me, I look at pictures of myself to remind myself that I’m a fcking machine and that I need to believe in myself.”
