Summary

When there’s a ghost, you’re going to call the Ghostbusters—makes sense.

But when you need to build muscle in a 100% drug-free way, but still turn your body into a bodybuilding and powerlifting machine, you’re going to want Eric Helms on speed dial.

The author of The Muscle and Strength Pyramid books and co-founder of the 3D Muscle Journey is back on the Brute Podcast this week to share his knowledge in nutrition, exercise science and all things muscles. He expounds on nutrition to discuss philosophies such as the 80/20 rule, the effects of caffeine, his thoughts on the plant-based diet and supplements for weight loss. He also dives deeper into mental health and stresses the importance of how you can prevent a burnout.

Topics:

06:50 – Mental health and self-awareness

20:45 – Compartmentalizing

33:50 – Choosing abstinence

46:05 – Why we eat

55:50 – Plant-based diet

1:07:10 – Supplements for weight/fat loss

0:31.0	Hey, before we get this show started, let me quickly tell you about a program that we just launched called Outside the Box. When we first started Brute, we simply serve people that wanted to train for and compete at the
0:36.0	Cross Fit Regionals and games. Pretty quickly, we transitioned to also working with people that
0:42.0	wanted to compete in the open, people that just
