Mike O’Hearn and Power Bodybuilding 

In one of his YouTube videos, the 54-YO Titan confessed, “I’m also doing power bodybuilding but cutting up.” So during a cut, most bodybuilders reduce their calorie intake and start training with lighter weights, as they increase their sets and reps. Thus, this tactic helps bodybuilders improve their conditioning and it further reveals the gains made while the bulking phase was going on.

Despite the cuts and reduction in calories, Mike O’Hearn was lifting heavy weights, which is quite the opposite approach as he said, “Different approach, and I don’t tell you guys to do it that way because power bodybuilding, really um, drains that nervous system.” O’Hearn has made waves in the bodybuilding community with his tips and tricks on fitness.
