Summary

This episode was a total treat, getting to talk about some of the best topics! We started with the ONE FORM TIP THAT WILL CHANGE YOUR LIFE... maybe. It involves your glutes, so that has to be good. The main discussion is on 5 takeaways from World Champ Adam Peterman's training that can apply to all athletes, including how to balance intensity and using cross training strategically. Other topics: rejecting cynicism, a cellular-level explanation for why strides work, how the principles may apply across sports, using the bike and elliptical for breakthroughs, some cool data on iron bisglycinate, and much more! 

Most importantly, we finish the podcast with a primer on WOLF SCIENCE from a recent study showing how a parasite affects animal behavior. This episode is some wild fun! And after the wolf talk, you may find yourself setting out and becoming the leader of your pack (especially if you grew up with cats... it'll make more sense after you listen).

Woohoo! Welcome to the Summer Call Play podcast. We are so happy to be with you today.

0:04.2

Happy Tuesday! It's Tuesday!

0:05.9

Oh, yeah. And my heart rate, David, is recovering from about 190 beats per minute.

0:10.6

Why is that?

0:11.6

Because you did one of your hardest workouts. And over a year, I came down and you were

0:16.4

absolutely crushing shit on the elliptical. How are you feeling now?

0:19.4

Oh, thank you. That's partially the reason. But I felt great. It was so awesome.

0:23.6

I mean, I feel like being back into elliptical workouts right now is magic for me.

0:27.5

I haven't had endorphins in so long. And I don't know how I survived without them for a while.

0:31.5

You're putting that machine to good use. You broke both arms of the elliptical over time.

0:35.9

I'm not sure if that means it was improperly installed. But I'm going to go with,

0:39.2

you're just putting out massive fucking elliptical watts, Megan.

0:42.2

Oh, yeah. Thank you. Yeah. I kind of gave them compound fractures of the arms.

0:46.2

And you put them back together with duct tape. And I'm not entirely sure.

0:50.6

Every time I go to do elliptical work, I'm like, this might be my last one.

0:53.6

Okay. So what happened is I went down in the washers that went,

0:57.0

we're essentially at one of the hinges on the elliptical, both fractured down the middle.

1:00.4

So you broke metal. So congrats on that high five. Yay, watts.

1:04.5

And I wasn't sure exactly what to do. So what I did is I put it all together,

1:09.0

banged it with a hammer and then duct taped it really hard.

1:12.0

And it seems like it worked today. So go me.

1:14.2

I was skeptical because it looked like a six grade science fair project.
