In this installment, titled "Myths - Part Two," I’ll be cutting through more myths and more misconceptions. First on the chopping block is the age-old advice of not skipping leg day. It's not a myth; it's gospel. I'll also dismantle the Hollywood myth that the chicken, broccoli, and rice diet is the sole catalyst for jaw-dropping transformations, shedding light on the potential influence of performance-enhancing substances. Spoiler alert: they're likely on more gear than big Alan at the gym. Next up, I'll challenge the protein absorption limit myth, encouraging listeners to defy skeptics and feed their inner protein squirrels. I'll be dispelling the notion that muscle soreness is the only measure of a successful workout, advocating for a balanced approach that embraces gains without constant pain. Also addressing the bizarre trend of warm water magically melting body fat – a load of f*ckery. And for those who believe that muscle can turn into fat or that a pound of muscle weighs more than a pound of fat, it's not a myth but a lesson in volume versus weight. Density matters.
Every week, we're jumping headfirst into the insanity of healthy eating, fad diets, and fitness mumbo jumbo. I'm here to cut through the crap, no sugarcoating, maybe a bit of oversharing, and unfortunately the odd bad pun.
