When it comes to nutrition and training...talking about what's optimal is always fun, but making it practical changes lives. On this show we'll dive deep on all things training, nutrition, and mindset optimization while making sure to drive home the practical and applicable side of things.

150: Bryan Boorstein - Two meatheads doing cardio - Why and how we're incorporating more zone 2 work into our routines
01:35:56
There’s going to be a good amount of overlap between this episode and last week’s episode with Dr. Alyssa Olenick but I think that’s fine since some of the content can be a little dense. Reinforcement won’t hurt!
.
Bryan and I go through the basics of zone 2 physiology and application and talk about WHY we’re starting to incorporate more of it at this point in our lives.
.
Since we’ve both spent the majority of the last decade training to be a full-time meathead, this gentle shift in goals has had a bit of a learning curve but has been super fun to explore.

147: @ButterYourMacros - Fitting into your clothes as your body changes...Should you throw out all of the clothes that don't fit you anymore?
00:45:25
I don’t want to understate how important this discussion is…because it’s complicated! Clothes and fashion are part of our culture and expression and let’s face it, we wear clothes every day and having clothes that fit us well is a good feeling.
At the same time…we’re not here on earth to fit into clothes. As our bodies change (for potentially many different reasons) our clothes should change with us. This is what we discuss in today’s episode…
How to deal with “fitting into your clothes” as your body changes throughout your life.
