Alwyn Cosgrove Fat Loss Interview
A new episode of Max-Out Radio has just been released - Episode 4: Afterburn Edition
I sat down and picked Alwyn Cosgrove's brain for 45 minutes about all the tips and tricks he uses with his clients to get them to drop bodyfat.
If you need to get rid of some extra bodyfat or just love his scottish accent you'll want to listen to this episode.
Check it out at:
http: www.MaxOutRadio.com
or through iTunes

Enjoy!

That was one of the best, informative interviews I've ever heard. Great job! Alwyn is THE fat loss man.

Great interview... but that discounted afterburn link goes right to the full-priced regular link. Thought you might like to know.
Thanks for a great interview, and a lovely stretch of scottish accent  |

For the record, Alwyn's name is pronounced Al-win, right? Or is the w silent? It always sounds like people are pronouncing his name like Allen.
I don't like butchering people's names as that is their identity.
And The Understatement of the Year Award goes to Alwyn Cosgrove for his line: "As a lot of people will tell you, my workouts can be a little bit more intense than you're used to."

I read an interview somewhere where the interviewer asked if it was pronounced "Allan" and Alwyn said that it is closer to "all-in" ... those Gaelic names are tough!!!

Jule is right -- he lets us get away with saying "Allen", but the real pronunciation should be more like "All-in". Like fallin' down or straight ballin'.
Hell, Lou wrote a book with him but said he uses the "Allen" pronunciation, so I think he's cool with whatever.

Mike, Best MaxOut show so far! Alwyn had a ton of great information to share and he's very enjoyable to hear. Good job on your introductory section too!

Mike, had the opportunity to listen today on a long car-ride ... listened to your interview with Alwyn on the way there and Cassandra on the way back ... AWESOME!!!! I loved hearing Alwyn speak after reading so much of his stuff ... he just makes great sense and I learn so much everytime I read anything he writes. It was great hearing him speak (LOVE the accent!) ... the interview with Cassandra was great too ... haven't finished it completely, but will this evening hopefully ... thanks!!

Good stuff.

That was one of my favorites too. Alwyn is full of great one liners. I'm glad you all like the interview so much! |

Very informative.
That part about the leg matrix (finishers) was great too. Alwyn provided a good answer to what someone had posted on the Leg Matrix thread concerning doubts that after a heavy squat session the matrix would be possible. (in short what purpose would the matrix serve if you were looking to improve strength?)

Loved the show! I think you made the right choice skipping the remix and giving all the time to Alwyn.
I was wondering something. If him and Lyle were talking about intervals to metabolize fat and create a rise in triglicerides wouldn't it be logical to do the same not using regular intervals, but BW intervals or any other type of "lifting" activity. For example for the stubborn FL protocol you could do 15 minutes of complexes (about 4 sets for me usually), then take a 5 minute break, then do SS cardio. Also, shouldn't you be expected to have a lot of free triglycerides floating around at the end of your lifting session anyways?
Just wondering, I'd be happy if anyone here has ideas or has used this as an approach and seen changes
