In this episode the guys break down exactly how to get strong as fast as possible — why strength is one of the best investments you can make in your health and longevity, why lifting heavy is non-negotiable, why stopping short of failure is the key to sustainable progress, why fewer exercises done with more sets beats the other way around, why eating a lot is mandatory not optional, and why nine hours of sleep is the most underrated strength tool available. They also cover Butcher Box’s grass-fed tri tip and why it has become a staple in the guys’ meal prep, Adam’s ongoing reverse diet update and the results he is seeing, new data on testosterone and its underappreciated role in women’s health, Legion’s egg protein and how it stacks up, and the guy who lives in the bookmark section of Instagram — the person everyone saves but never actually follows.
