About This Episode
<p dir="ltr">In this episode the guys break down the five steps to becoming the fittest you've ever been for life — not just for a season. They cover why fitness should improve your life rather than become your life, the importance of building strength for longevity, moving well and being able to play, and what realistic aesthetics look like for someone who actually has a life. Sal opens up about his own ongoing struggle with making fitness an idol, Adam talks about genuinely letting go of the all-or-nothing mentality, and Justin reflects on the identity shift from performance-based athlete to training for quality of life. They also get into the SpaceX IPO and the 4,000 overnight millionaires it will create, why politicians criticizing billionaires is frustrating, Olipop's origin story and 1.8 billion dollar valuation, the delta sleep inducing peptide Sal has been using, parasite infections being far more common than people think, and Adam shooting a squirrel that was eating his peaches. Then they coach live callers submitted through mplivecaller.com.</p> <p dir="ltr">No BS 6-Pack Formula: <a href="http://nobs6pack.com">https://nobs6pack.com<br /></a> Code: 6PACK for 50% off.
