Hey everyone, this is Greg. I believe this will be hitting your podcast feed on December 27th.

So first off, let me just wish a belated Merry Christmas to everyone listening.

And I just wanted to give a brief introduction

to the episode you're about to listen to,

as it is an atypical episode of the podcast in that it was not originally an

episode of the Stronger by Science podcast. I recently appeared as a guest on the Data Driven Strength Podcast, where we

chatted for about four hours about mechanisms of hypertrophy, really getting pretty deep into the weeds.

So if you need or just want quite a bit of really nerdy, nitty gritty audio content to help you kind of de-stress from the holidays.

Hopefully this will be well received.

And yeah, also before turning it over to Zach and Josh to to tee up

the actual episode you're about to listen to. Just two quick notes. One is that this

episode has already been released in the Data Driven Strength Podcast feed. So if you if you already listen to that

podcast and you see it and you're like oh my god these guys did eight hours of

of content total on this topic. What more are they getting into? Don't worry,

it is the same episode. So if you already listen to it over there, you can just skip this one as it is the exact same

content you've already heard. And if you haven't listened to it, I think you'll enjoy it and if you do I would strongly

recommend checking out Josh and Zach's podcast the Data Driven Strength

Podcast. They're good guys they do good work and if you like the Stronger by Science

Podcast and you don't already subscribe to the Data Driven Strength Podcast as well, I think you'd really enjoy it. They're, I think, on a pretty similar

wavelength to us talking about a lot of similar topics with a similar level of care and depth and nuance.

So yeah, if you like if you like our pot I think you would like theirs

go go and subscribe and I hope you enjoy. All right, with that out of the way, I will
