This week we have Alec Blenis back for round two. If you didn't catch his first episode back in August, it's one of our most popular and definitely worth going back for. Alec has a really unique background ranging from Georgia Tech physics grad to former professional Spartan Racer and competitive ultramarathoner to Murph world record holder. Lately he's becoming a bigger and bigger voice in the fitness social media world with his emphasis on hybrid training, antifragile approach to movement, and willingness to take on big problems in the space.

In this conversation we cover a lot of ground. We start with how to ask better questions (Alec is a master of the Instagram Q&A) and then we dive into interference effect, how people misinterpret the concept of progressive overload, and more.

You can find Alec on Instragram @alecblenis where he has tons of great content, and he also offers paid programming and coaching.

He's also currently running a side bend challenge if you have what it takes to compete!
