| 0:00.0 | Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, welcome back to the muscle intelligence podcast. |
| 0:14.6 | I am your host Ben Pocoski. |
| 0:16.0 | Today we're doing a solo cast. |
| 0:17.5 | We're going to dive into muscle building from a movement perspective, from a training |
| 0:22.3 | perspective. We're not going to dive into nutrition today. We're not going to dive into |
| 0:26.1 | supplementation today. But something that I've been obviously studying for quite a long time, |
