2854: The Optimal Sets & Reps at Every Intensity ! Soviet Science Explains
In this episode the guys break down six training secrets discovered by Soviet Union sports scientists — the methods that made them the most dominant strength athletes in the world before steroids were even part of the conversation. They also get into the surprising dopamine-boosting effect of exogenous ketones, a study on how a father's attractiveness influences his daughter's looks more than the mother's, which group of young men is happiest (married dads by a wide margin), and Gen Z data showing 1 in 8 believe scrolling is more pleasurable than sex. Then they answer questions submitted through their Instagram page, coaching callers live on air.   MAPS 15 BOGO — https://maps15bogo.com Buy 1 get 1 FREE — limited time   Submit a live caller question: https://mplivecaller.com Mind Pump Store: https://mindpumpstore.com Instagram: @mindpumpmedia   SPONSORS   Ketone IQ — https://ketone.com/MINDPUMP 30% off subscription orders + free gift with second shipment (6-pack, merch & more) — no code needed.    Crisp Power — https://www.crisppower.com/mindpump Code: MINDPUMP — 10% off.
