0:00.0	The
0:07.0	The President Hey, everybody, welcome to the muscle intelligence podcast. I'm your host, Ben Pekolsky. So for many years,
0:43.3	I relentlessly pursued building as much muscle as humanly possible. I've learned a lot of things
0:49.3	along the way. I've made a lot of mistakes along the way. And a lot of this podcast is really framed around giving
0:55.0	you a simple solution to building your greatest body and living a life that you absolutely love.
1:01.5	And today's podcast comes from a guy who's got just as much and likely a lot more experience
1:06.5	than I do in the fitness space. Today's conversation is really focused around giving you some
1:12.7	action items that you can apply to living a healthy life, a strong life, and a life full of muscle,
1:20.5	and most importantly, fulfillment. And my guest today, Mark Bell, is the owner of Slingshot
1:24.9	and the owner of Super Training Gym in Sacramento, California. And he joined me today from his gym in Sacramento, where we chat about Mark's journey
1:33.5	throughout his fitness life. So Mark started as a nearly 300-pound powerlifter, squatting
1:40.8	well over 1,000 pounds. He's then transcended into having done bodybuilding

1:56.5	able to get up at any time in our life and be able to do anything? If I want to climb a mountain
2:00.3	tomorrow, I can do it. If I want to do a sprint or 10 sprints tomorrow, I can do it. If I want to
2:04.8	ride 100 miles on my bike, I can do it if I want to really do anything with my kids and still be
2:09.5	able to bench, you know, 315 pounds and deadlift 500 pounds or do these things that a strong man in my eyes can do. So my definition of a strong man can do. And this is one of the
2:19.3	most fun conversations I've had on the podcast in a long time. Mark is a brilliant wealth of
2:24.8	information. And I just been able to talk with him for the second time now on a podcast. I last did
2:29.7	his podcast. Now he's doing up mine. It's just really a great, organic, fun, informative conversation.
2:36.7	So we're not getting deep into science. We're not talking deep about, you know, mechanistic
