In this week’s unfiltered, unapologetic, and unexpectedly insightful episode of Off The Strength, hosts Tony Vidal and KR Jones take you on a wild ride through the world of health, wellness, and questionable life choices—all while engaging their cores and holding onto the rails of reason (because train-surfing is, apparently, a thing).

✨ Topics on Tap (or Should We Say, “Off Tap”?) ✨

🚫 Dry January or Just Dry Heaving? We break down the Hard Ketones craze, the alt-bev trial era, and why 25% of U.S. adults are voluntarily choosing hydration over hangovers. (The other 75%? Still in denial.)

💤 Slacking On Your Napping? The science is in—bad sleep is ruining your metabolism, messing with your gains, and quite possibly giving you the kind of carcinogenic vibes you didn’t sign up for. Bedtime rituals are now officially cooler than bottle service.

💪 Gym Shark’s Modesty Line: Because Clothes Are Optional, Apparently. The inverse correlation between gym price and gym attire—the more you pay, the less you wear—proves that luxury fitness might just be a high-end nudist colony with protein shakes.

🏃‍♂️ Are Americans Doing Fitness Wrong? According to The New York Times, yes—and based on the Hoka-wearing, corner-store-running culture of the UK, we might actually agree.

💉 Ketamine Therapy for Depression? Big Pharma’s favorite pivot: Johnson & Johnson is now out here treating severe clinical depression with horse tranquilizers, proving that self-care is just science with better branding.

⚽ Disco Foot is the New Soccer Movement? You mean to tell us we’ve been plyometrically training all wrong, and all it took was adding a strobe light and some questionable footwork?

📖 Revisiting Your Old Work to Make Progress – Why growth sometimes means cringing at your past self and embracing your evolution (yes, even that phase when you thought meal prepping was your entire personality).

🏈 Don Julio x The Popeyes x The Super Bowl – Because nothing says “touchdown” quite like a tequila-powered halftime sermon.

💀 Cosmetic Death from Surgery – At what point does "snatched" turn into "snatched from existence"?

🔄 Embrace The Pivot. Affirm Your Authenticity. Sometimes, life throws you off course—whether it's your fitness routine, career path, or attempt at train-surfing (again, please don’t). But at the end of the day, the real flex is adaptation.

🔥 Tune in, laugh, learn, and remember—wellness isn’t just about gains, it’s about game. 🔥
