What's up, Achievers?! Happy (belated) Mother's Day to all you Moms and Moms-to-be! We cover a wide variety of information in this one! In the first question, we delve into what supplements we recommend for joint pain management, and if glucosamine is a worthwile supplement to take (2:43). We also cover what HRV (heart rate variability) is and whether or not we think tracking it is beneficial (6:46). Lastly, we discuss why there is SO MUCH conflicting information out there regarding strength training programs. Body part splits? Total body workouts? 3x a week? 5-6x a week? We discuss all of the benefits of these workout regimens and when to utilize each one (13:04)! We hope you enjoyed this episode! If you did, we'd love you forever if you left a rating and review on iTunes - it seriously helps us out a lot!

What's up, Achievers?! Hope you all had a wonderful weekend! Sorry the podcast has been more like 1x a week, but Kendrick has been limiting our opportunities a bit! In the first question, we delve into the difference between stiff legged deadlifts and Romanian deadlifts, and which one we prefer (2:11). We then go into how to prioritize different goals all at the same time (5:47). Next, we discuss how we classify deadlifts - as a back exercise or a leg exercise (10:52). Finally, we touch on a question on how we'd adjust and modify a program depending on if the athlete was in-season or pre-season (14:22). We hope you enjoyed this episode!

What's up, Achievers?! Our introduction has some references to our last podcast episode where we talk about what to do when someone offers you unsolicited advice at the gym - we couldn't think of a great answer, so we sought out your opinion, and Lauren's mom happened to write in with the perfect answer! In our first question, we cover what we think about squatting with a natural arch in your lower back (2:23). Next, we talk about how to get back into Olympic lifting after preganancy (5:04). Finally, we delved into how to improve your upper back mobility for cat/cows (9:57). We hope you enjoyed this episode!
