“Advanced lifter” - what comes to mind when you hear this phrase? Strong, muscular, elite, clearly doing things right? Perhaps, and that’s why many people emulate advanced lifters. Everyone wants the athleticism, strength, and physiques that advanced lifters have, and thankfully, these days novices and intermediates are coming to understand that those outcomes take time. But what they don’t often realize is that the processes that result in those outcomes take time to engrain as well. Trying to change your nutritional, sleep, recovery, training, and mindset habits all simultaneously fails to acknowledge that it’s not only the advanced outcomes but also the advanced processes that take time to master.

0:00.0 | Eric, we have to, what's another, we can't call it controversy, we can't, okay? |
0:06.1 | Because that has a negative connotation to it. So what should we call it? |
0:12.2 | Well, some might call the stumbling block. Yeah. But I think as we're going to find out from this episode, all stumbling blocks are stepping stones. So we can initially discuss it as a stumbling block, and people will see how it's actually |
0:24.3 | probably the best mistake we ever made. |
0:26.4 | Yeah, yeah, yeah. |

1:10.5 | wide and really stand the test of time. You know, once we're long gone, you know, and, you know, we know what is going to happen to us. |
1:18.8 | We don't have to say it out loud and who and Pymond and all those things. |
1:23.1 | But there are those that take issue. |
