Garage Gym Athlete

See whats up with the team this week in training and life.

This week we are talkng with long time athelre Travis Nix. It was interesting getting prespective from a competetive body builder who came to the functional fitness space of concurrent trianing.

this week we are looking at rest time again but specifically looking at hypertrophy over time.

Sleep is crucial, but how does it effect performance exactly?

We're trying out a new format where we do a update episode so if you never cared about our updates and just wanted the other content you can listen to it there.

Its time to call BS on a bunch of fads and popular things in the health and fitness community that should be avoided.

We're talking deload again this week and more evidence on why its so important. This one target hormones and hypertrophy when you take a week rest after a cycle.

How should you prescribe weight to those new to lifting?

This week we have Amy Lyman and this was such a great episode. Amy has a great story to tell from her volunteer fire fighter duty, to raising 6 kids, staying active and learnign to stuggle. Highly recommend this episode espeically for a look at mental toughness.

This weeks study we look at a systematic review directed toward carbs before workout and your output. How much should you get and how much of an impact does it have?
