Garage Gym Athlete: From Our Athletes To Jocko Willink, Tim Ferriss, & Rich Froning There’s One Thing In Common: Garage Gym

Our advice on wearables and what to look for. 

We all like to workout with our garage door open or fully outside. But what do you do if you have a chatty neighbor that regularly interrupts your workouts? Here are some of our tips and thoughts on chatty neighbors.

This weeks study will compare how males and females recover after doing sub max effort strength and max effort strength. Then we talk about our own recovery tips and what we like to do.

This weeks study is on breathing and if a form of hyperventilating can help with lifting. 

This week we have Ryan Caswell back and if you are part of our community he is no stranger to you. These talk are always fun to really dive deeper into some of our more experienced and long term athletes and check in how training has been and will be. 

This weeks study was very interesting because it addresses some popular "bro science." Do older athletes need more protein than younger? Or is that a myth and its more about experience? Also we have had a TON of questions about this 300 challenge so we attempt to put all of them to rest now and update on what we are doing. 

This week we are talking about workout gear, specifically what is the best footwear to wear when squatting. This will be individual for you so check this episode out if you need some guidance. 

What do you do if your programming has an exercise you cant due for lack or equipment or something else?

This weeks study looks at the asymmetry of a mixed grip deadlift at low and high weight. What can the impact be overtime and to your health? Then we talk about focus goals and how to implement them.

We dont always talk about gear but this is worth a listen and how to best recovery with some compressions gear. 

This week we have Jason Wood back on the podcast. He is a long time athlete so we wanted to talk a little bit deeper with Jason and some of the larger goals he is going for, especially as a lifetime member now. 

Overtraining and under eating show almost all of the same symptom and have long lasting effects. Today we look at study that compared then two and then talk about our philosophy on the two and more on training. Then we talk about our three favorite studies we went over in 2021.

This weeks study examines he differences and uses for trap bar and conventional deadlift. Which is better for you?

Time is a big factor in working out and a lot of athletes only have one hour to work out in. This is why we developed the blocks training system. Checkout this video and an article below about more.

New 12 week cycle for some concurrent training. This will have a breakdown of our programming, each track brief, GIVEAWAYS and more.

We talk a lot about macros when it comes to energy and recovery, but what about for sleep?

We have Chris Morgan on once again but with our new style of athlete of the week podcast. Were talking about the process of working out instead of chasing strict metics. And we also talk about out favorite, Murph. 

Concurrent training talk again! Another study that had some flaws but still showed promise for strength in concurrent training. We also talk about energy systems and how best to program both. Then we talk about tech in the fitness space.

Supersets! We do this a lot in our programming especially with body geometry.
