Garage Gym Athlete

This week we are back with long time athlete, Coree Rountree. She has been around the community for a very long time, usually fairly silent but she is definitely an OG in the GGA world.

This week we have a very quick study on music and the effect of listening music just between sets, not during, can help increase performance. Then we have a DEEP dive review in Fiber Fuel. We start with the negatives but them move to the positives and overall this was a very good book for the team and started a lot of dialogue about fiber.

this week we are looking at intra rest recovery and performance enhancers and one that may be hurting.

Our next 12 week cycle starts next week! always a perfect time to join. We also have some big updates like having kettlebell and sandbag variations to our Hard to Kill track. No barbells needed!

We have a unique study this week and our discussions on it. This study looked at how three different groups estimated their calorie consumption and which groups were most successful. Then we have our first group AMA (ask me anything) about being in a calorie deficit and losing strength.

This weeks study looks at the amount of protein is best for recovery and performance.

Jerred and Joe have a great chat with Caroline Miller and how she gets her training done when her location and gym situation changes regularly, and more.

This weeks study compares strength and hypertrophy gains with athletes who eat 3 meals or 6 meals a day in a calorie surplus. Then this weeks topic are marketing terms we thing you need to avoid or be aware of.

This week we are looking at a study that shows the importance and science behind a proper warm up.

This week Jerred and Joe are sitting down with Stephen McFall and how he's getting the work done in his basement gym without a barbell.
