This episode of How To Twenty-Something talks about why it’s good to add weight to the bar when you’re in the gym and muscle to your body. Jake Packett and I debunk common fears around the gym, how to add healthy weight to your body, defining what it really means to eat clean, and how to remove the ‘noise’ of the people who have unearned superpowers. At the end of the day, we don’t want you to fear the gym or changing your body, which is why we want to enlighten you with how you can overcome these common fears as a male and as a female.
