1:07:10 I've deadlifted in Powerlifts for years and I'm glad that I'm not alone in it. The extra stability is great, the mobility is useful, and I think it acts like a very minor deficit deadlift.
I really enjoyed the previous temporary primary co-host. He’s much better than the current temporary primary tertiary co-host. Can you give that guy his job back?
The perpendicular grip rack horizontal row thing sounds mechanically similar to ring inverted rows. That would even allow moving your hands in and out over the range of motion so potentially nicer
For the next episode I would love to hear you talk about whether metabolic stress plays any role in gains. I've seen many people say it's 100% mechanical tension. I'm not entirely sure that's true.
How can Rasko Apparel podcast steal your content if you do Q&A week after week?? But what does Greg think about doing clean deadlifts? I find they aren't as annoying and scraping as regular deadlift. Obviously you include more quads and less posterior chain, but the amount of weight you can lift in deadlift still trains your muscles a lot. Talking about overconfident advertising type of exercise media, just last night youtube showed me a lady promoting her SIT programs that supposedly activate metabolism for sick fat burning effect and just 7 minutes a day is supposedly scientifically researched to be more effective than traditional exercises. Then interviewing some witnesses who said "I didn't need a diet and I had tried different programs, this one made me lose 20 pounds and become a fit and jagged grandma without dieting!" etc. Oh yeah and the program was New York Times reviewed to work too. Basically the ad mentioned every trick you can list for manipulating emotional responses and mention random authoritative sounding qualifiers to make it sound like there's solid science behind it.

What a great podcast. So much knowledge. Thank you Gentlemen
That special guest co-host is a funny guy hope we get so see him again

That's what I thought too. He made a ring row for gyms that don't have rings. They're very solid

I just have to say how relived I am Eric gave a proper shout-out to Game Changers when talking about his vegan diet 😉
You mentioned a study about incline bench press and bench press, could you link it?
hey guys just wanted to let you know that this was a podcast
The combine is almost like the new Army Combat Fitness Test; even more validation for naysayers.
The acft is quite bad, is kind of similar from far away only
Good morning guys. 230am!
Who wants a fitness podcast at 2:30AM
OH BOY 2:30AM.patrickstarr
Where does the “statistically I like 40% of my audience,” come from? I’ve heard this from other podcasts too.
For the algorithm

Those laptops are bordering on comically large.
