And of course, there are the bots from hell. Jillian Michaels claims the only reason people are considered obese today is that the definition of obese changed in 1998. (10:00) There are many tools to help with weight loss, some better than others. (13:00) A recent post by Vinnie revealed the goal of big food companies to develop foods that even GLP-1s won't stop cravings for. Kris is our call-in guest. (19:00) How can a person still kick ass while aging without having to try gimmicky things like meditation, stem cells, mushrooms, etc? There are three primary things to follow. Get quality sleep! Limit screen time, especially before bed, and aim for 7 or more hours of sleep. Give yourself a full recovery from your workouts. (33:00) HIIT training should not be done more than 2x a week. Recovery is also done with eating quality animal protein. Strong legs are an indicator of strength and longevity. (50:00) Rucking is considered Zone 2 unless you are going uphill a lot. (58:00) Do not run while rucking. Also, get the waistband to help balance the weight.
