Power Athlete Nation, you asked, and we answered. This week, resident Dragon Slayer Arash Soofiani grills me with your best training, nutrition, and life questions. We’re talking strength gains, fat loss, and why you’re probably not overtraining—just under-recovering. Plus, a deep dive into cedar fever, bulking myths, and coaching youth flag football like it’s the Super Bowl.

Hit play, get smarter, and start training like you mean it.
