2868: Every Lifter Should Do This at Least Once — The Case for Powerlifting
In this episode the guys break down why almost everyone should do at least one cycle of powerlifting-style training, regardless of your goal. They cover why the squat, bench press and deadlift are the most underrated tools for building a great physique, how strength is the only objective metric that tells you everything is going right, why powerlifting programing beats bodybuilding programing for most people, and how focusing on strength is one of the best tools for getting people out of body dysmorphia.  They also get into Brian Johnson's perfect 100 sleep score streak on Eight Sleep and his girlfriend's vaginal microbiome flex, the four reported species of aliens now being covered by mainstream news, Justin's son qualifying for nationals in gymnastics, and the AP x Swatch collab that caused global pandemonium. Then they answer questions submitted through Instagram — covering MAPS phase adaptation, lighter weight training strategies, combining running and strength training, and the best rep range for one set to failure.
