  <title>2908: How to Pick the Right Workout: The Most Important Question to Ask Before You Start</title>
  <description>In this episode the guys break down exactly how to pick the right workout for your goals — covering why enjoyment matters more than most people realize, how to honestly assess whether you actually like what you're doing, the ROI of strength training versus other modalities, and why appropriateness for your actual life is the deciding factor. They also get into the origin of clowns (spoiler: ancient India and Egypt, not the circus), the CLOW peptide stack from Vita Bella and why Sal and Katrina are both using it for recovery and skin health, Sal's revelation that he quit jiu jitsu because his ego got destroyed at a tournament in 2006 not because of scheduling, the Rafael Nadal documentary and what it teaches about identity and decline, and Carl Jung on why the back half of life is actually better than the first. Then they answer questions from Instagram on optimal body fat for women, how to increase maintenance calories without gaining fat, fixing forward rolled shoulders, and the ethical situations trainers face on the job. &amp;amp;nbsp; MAPS Upper Lower: https://mapsupperlower.com Code: LAUNCH for 40% off.
