Summer is here. 

And I'm not talking about the season.

Andy and I reflect on a productive and unbelievable year. 

We chat about what we accomplished; the places we traveled; the significant things we experienced over the course of the year; and of course, the goals we set and the goals we achieved. Looking forward to 2023, we chat about what we hope to accomplish in the coming year, both personally and professionally. Grab a beer and enjoy!

As you might have heard, the Insta-famous “Liver King” was exposed recently for being a fraud. 

Unfortunately, Liver King and people like him abound in all industries, fitness included. Today, Andy and I talk about Liver King and our beef with him and people like him, and talk about ethics in fitness, marketing, and more.

You might have noticed that we were gone for a few weeks.

 That’s because my Andy and his wife had their baby! 

Today, we’re back at East Nashville Brew Works and talking about training. As coaches we often talk about training, workouts, and programs sort of in a vacuum: where real world conditions don’t apply. Obviously, lots of factors play into our day-to-day success in and out of the gym. Family, work, stress, weather, lack of sleep, bad nutrition…you name it. These things play a role in how well we perform and recover. So how do you organize and optimize your training and nutrition when life isn’t optimal? Grab a beer, tune in, and enjoy!

Andy and I reconvene after our eventful weekends, we’re drinking beer and talking shop. 

When it comes to lifting heavy weights, what’s the best approach? How do we define heavy? How do we train our bodies to lift ever-increasing weight? These questions and more on the podcast today, so grab a beer and enjoy!

Andy and I host bodybuilder, Bostonian, and comedian, Tony Capobianco. Tony is new to Nashville but not that new to the comedy scene. He joins the podcast to talk about his passion for comedy, what brought him here to Nashville, and his enthusiasm and energy for bodybuilding. 

Next, the three of us talk about our “banned exercises” and why we hate them. Grab a beer and enjoy!

Today we’re discussing the ab exercises we like to do both as coaches and trainees, as well as our evolution of ab training over the years – from doing a thousand crunches every workout, to doing no abs at all, to bringing some ab training back again.

Andy and I are checking back in at East Nashville Beer works and talking shop. Our fans ask: what do you think of ankle mobility drills, and how and when do you use them? Andy and I share our thoughts on mobility drills, squatting, and how we approach these with our gen pop clients. 

Next, we take a moment to look over our own training over the years and consider what we most appreciate about all the work – the reps, the sets, the time punching the clock – and look fondly over what we enjoy most about where we are today.
