Summary

We’re breaking format again! This time we’re doing an open AMA, or in this case Ask Us Anything. Normally we like to have an expert backstop our opinions…or correct us…but this time we’re flying without a net. Here are some of the questions we took on: What do we think of marijuana and CBD? Will technology ever be used to judge squat depth in meets? What are our least favorite foods? What’s the cost of living in Sacramento? Try this cost-of-living calculator Did Mike’s powerlifting background help or hurt when he started Olympic lifting? Does Jim still lift? How do you stay hydrated when you’re on the move? Are Jim and @jacob.w.ross related? What if your significant other doesn’t share your fitness/lifting goals? Top three tips for starting a new small business?
