Craig Hoffman and Chris Gorres visit with Chris Perrin, co-owner and co-founder of Cut Seven. After a brief diatribe about raising children, the group talks about how Perrin and his wife, Alex, started Cut Seven and built it from a single class into a thriving business.

Craig Hoffman and Chris Gorres welcome  Meg Young (Chicago Red Stars High-Performance Director) to talk about the injustice and embarrassment that was the "weight room" at the NCAA Women's Basketball Tournament in San Antonio. Meg, a former collegiate strength coach at Auburn and Baylor, talks about what she saw on social media and what her friends on the ground told her about the NCAA's "attempt" to provide strength and conditioning equipment for the tournament.

The trio then discusses how the problem is emblematic of larger problems of strength and conditioning in women's sports, how those problems can be solved and what can be done to help the coaches dealing with them.

Plus, Craig and Chris talk about week 1 of the TrainHeroic programming and how Chris handled before diving deep into Craig's newest training goal: increasing max deadlift. Chris gives a full formulaic plan that he used with former NFL Pro Bowler Lorenzo Alexander for years.
