Summary

Ify Nwadiwe is in The Weight Room for episode 35. You know him from writing for @midnight and being a member of the hilarious improv team, White Women. The Dumbbells talk to Ify about growing up in LA and how his father's experience with a roommate made him forbid Ify from playing sports. Ify tells the guys how he about how he got into lifting and how his love of gaming helped facilitate it. The guys talk twitch, IRL, and social eating as well as why it's so compelling to see people lifting online. Everyone "weighs in" on how a food reviewer can maintain her weight despite all the unhealthy tastings she has to do for her job. Last, the group gives an equipment recommendation and talks yogurt.
