After a bit of nutrition and industry news, the guys chat with Canadian

physique competitor and trainer Melissa Traynor. Topics include the Canadian

competitive hierarchy in fitness and bodybuilding, business influences, politics,

and subjectivity in judging. And through it all, there remains that love of physique

trend? Is a frantic drive for high heart rates the best approach to quality

training? And what are the mature alternatives? Take a breath, settle down, and tune

in to find out!
