| 0:00.0 | Welcome everyone to the RP Strength Podcast. |
| 0:05.4 | I'm Nick Shaw joined by Dr. Mike. |
| 0:08.5 | What's up, man? |
| 0:09.5 | Mr. Nick Shaw, how are you? |
| 0:10.6 | I am swell. |
| 0:11.6 | I am swell, too. |
| 0:13.5 | But you might not be swell because you at home could be considering or taking somaglatide |
| 0:19.3 | or any of the other weight loss drugs that have |
| 0:23.2 | incredible benefits, super, super tons of really great health stuff, are incredibly empowering, |
| 0:29.2 | but they do have side effects. And that's important to say, that's not the only thing to say, |
| 0:35.6 | though, because the entire purpose of this chat today folks |

I'm very curious to hear what you have to say on that because, you know, someone messaged me, I was like, hey, like, how should you change your stuff? And I was like, I got to be awesome. I'm sure you would really need to change your |
| 1:27.5 | training at all. So I really care what you say there. But let me take a wild completely opposite |
| 1:31.4 | take on the diet one. I think you should continue to eat as much fatty junk type food as |
| 1:38.7 | possible on them, mostly all in one sitting. So probably want to decrease the amount of meals you have per day and just cram it all |
| 1:45.9 | into like one small time frame. |
| 1:48.2 | Mostly fat foods. |
