Show Notes

What's up, Achievers?! In today's episode, we go over the importance and application of nutrient timing. Carbs after 7pm? Protein after your workouts? We've got you covered! (4:00). We also cover our strategies to train for the military, as well as training for a specific test like the miltiary push up test (11:18). Next, we talked about our thoughts on posture bars and whether or not they made sense for people trying to improve their posture (16:52). Lastly, discussed the differences between open chain vs closed chain exercises as well as when to use each kind of exercise (19:55). We hope you enjoyed this episode!
