I received a lovely collection of questions and tried to give lovely answers. We touch on fat loss programming, marriage proposals, Jim Wendler's 5/3/1 programming, sporks, "Boogie Nights," when to add weight to the bar, when to de-load, salami, and a whole lot more. It's a great episode, and I hope you like it.

What do I include, and what do I avoid doing? How much resistance training and how much cardio? Have you asked yourself these questions? Properly putting together a training split is simple, but it isn't easy. This episode is devoted to clearing up some of the understandable confusion. We discuss separating fat loss, hypertrophy, endurance, and skill development. Overtraining is an underlying theme.

I'm sure many of you are making New Year's resolutions, and a good percentage of those resolutions are based on your physique. There's nothing inherently wrong with this practice, but I do think it's shortsighted. The idealized view of yourself already exists and instead of looking for new ways to change yourself, look to find that enhanced person you're hiding inside of you.

Watching what you eat seems to become exponentially harder once Halloween hits, and that added pressure doesn't subside until the New Year. The holidays are festive. There will be more social gatherings, communal fun, and with it, reasons to stuff that face. I do not recommend abstaining from the increased culinary fun, but I also dislike the heightened shame cycle that can come with it. If you’ve spent nine months monitoring what you’re eating and training with intent, the holiday struggles can be devastatingly painful. Here I will provide you with my five biggest tips to help you positively get through the holidays. Here is to a New Year without regrets of overindulgence or lack of visceral fun.

Andy Petranek is a remarkable man. He is a United States Marine, the oldest CrossFit games qualifier, and a performance coach. He founded Crossfit LA in 2004, where I met him. He became one of the more positive influences on me at the time and since. Two weeks ago, after celebrating 20 years of sobriety, he sent me an incredibly touching message, which is why we decided to do this podcast. We dive into self-compassion, honesty, accountability, and balancing the spiritual abstract with the harshest aspects of mundane reality.

A never-ending stream of podcasts will tell you how to lift and eat. Many of these podcasts are very good. The reality of fitness content is that it is mainly a distraction and not a source of education. There is a massive disconnect between most content and actual progress. This disconnect is the heart of most of our issues in and out of the gym.

Most people don't even understand the most crucial aspect of fitness, strength. Avoiding competency in strength in hopes of not being "bulky" is a common mistake. People's aversion to this abstract bulkiness subsequently guarantees their perpetual lack of leanness and muscularity.

In this podcast, I explain strength and how to achieve it effectively and efficiently. YEAH BUDDY!!
