  • This week’s question is more of a parenting question than a physiology question. When should parents introduce strength training? The answer is simpler than you’d think.

    Sebastian Brambila (@sebastian_brambila) ran the board and chimed in on this one.

  • If short lifters can use blocks under their feet in competition, why can’t tall lifters use a taller bench? That’s just one example, but when you take a closer look there are definitely some things that don’t make sense.

    We also talk NBA, Taylor Swift, local crime, and bidets.

  • Ryan Thompson is a plumber. He’s actually Jim’s plumber. But he didn’t plan to be a plumber. After fighting through addiction, a chance moment at a gas station led to a path forward for him. Locking in on new goals -- and relying on discipline learned through sports and in the gym --- he found a rewarding trade and career that changed his life.

    He shares how he worked through this change and how he maintains his contagious positivity. You can follow Ryan on Instagram at @rhinorooterplumbing.

  • Recent studies (https://www.theguardian.com/society/2024/apr/02/new-science-of-death-brain-activity-consciousness-near-death-experience) show that the brain is furious with activity in the minutes after death. Areas of the brain that don’t generally work together suddenly team up, and the visual cortex is particularly active.

    If your brain is going to show you a burst of images immediately after the rest of your body has checked out, what would you want to see? Avi Lieu (@avi.lieu) and Sebastian Brambila (@sebastian_brambila) are in on this one.

  • We’ve seen people on social media, TV, etc. talk about their “porn addiction.” Most people nod their heads as if they believe and understand what the person is going through. Addiction is addiction, right?

    But…several years ago, scientists stopped believing in the condition. Studies didn’t support that it exists, and there’s no way to diagnose it. Why are people still saying they have it if it doesn't exist? Do they really believe it, or are they virtue signaling?

  • While this is technically the 400th episode of the show, we’re treating it more like the “faux-hundredth” because we’ve used “rewind” episodes 11 times since we started. Look for something (hopefully) for our 400th episode of original content.

    We talked through the recent New York Magazine article about Andrew Huberman, the legal issues hounding Sean “P Diddy” Combs, and the arguably cultish support for them on social media.

    Why do people look for heroes outside themselves?

  • The exploding popularity of weight-loss drugs like Ozempic and Wegovy has raised awareness and demand for these “medical miracles” among the severely overweight…and the not-so-severely overweight.

    Some questions have arisen about side effects – some merely annoying and some potentially dangerous. One complaint is the loss of lean muscle mass. While this is obviously not ideal, is there something specific about these drugs that contributes to muscle loss, or is it nothing more than a normal effect of weight loss by any method? How can it be prevented?

    Listener resources: Survey of studies on weight loss and muscle loss vs fat loss.

  • Mike shares some signs that fitness social media and YouTube are regaining some of their old traction (2015-17 vibes, anyone?). Even attendance at the Arnold seems to be on the upswing again. Speaking of the Arnold, are we bummed that we didn’t go this year after making a return as spectators last year?

  • We didn’t have this announcement on our radar:

    “The IPF and CBS Sports (broadcaster of the Super Bowl 2024) have signed a multi-year agreement to bring IPF powerlifting to the TV in the USA and the whole of North America.” (Full release here: https://www.powerlifting.sport/about-ipf/news/news-detail/ipf-secures-tv-broadcast-partnership-for-north-america).

    For tested lifters in the US, does this change the calculus of choosing the IPF-affiliated Powerlifting America versus the larger and more familiar USAPL? And will anyone outside of powerlifting fandom be interested in watching a full meet -- or even a collection of highlights – on broadcast TV? We’ll find out later this year with coverage of a bench-only competition in Austin, Texas.

    As a warmup, we discussed entry-level doughnuts and fast-food restaurants.

  • We’ve all seen lifters go hard at the beginning and then burn out fast. Is it possible to pace yourself and continue to enjoy it year after year? Is competing the answer?

  • We try to guess our way through the top 10 candies in the US and break down some of the best roadside attractions around the country (particularly between LA and Las Vegas). We debate whether the F in the FMK game is the good kind of F*** or the “F*** off!” kind of F. We also discussed the Leonardo DiCaprio movie that’s being shot in town and the extreme experience of Kyoto coffee.

    Our own Avi Lieu (@avi.lieu), and Sebastian Brambila (@sebastian_brambila), joined us for this one.
