15 year old Morgan McCullough is the youngest ever American to clean & jerk 182kg/400lbs. He also has a 135kg snatch, a 190kg clean, and a 260kg back squat. He is a Youth Pan American Champion and the Youth American record holder in the clean and jerk. His coach is one of my favourite people, the one and only Travis Mash. Together these two plan on taking over the weightlifting world.

Josh and I nailed this episode on how much protein we should really consuming. We discussed the research by Stuart M. Phillips on dietary protein for athletes. We also gave our own example diets, correct protein intake for different weight classes, and of course we talked about general weightlifting.

After a few minutes of bullying I managed to persuade Josh into taking the introduction: He did not disappoint!

When Glenn was in the UK we sat down in my front room for what turned out to be one of our best ever episodes. We spoke in depth about the mechanics and utility of pulls and deadlifts in training, as well as the whimsical cultural differences that Glenn noticed during his stay in the UK. This episode was recorded last summer but never aired until now. Enjoy!
