from Mind Pump: Raw Fitness Truth

In this episode the guys break down the pros and cons of the five most popular workout styles right now, Pilates, yoga, bodybuilding, powerlifting, and hybrid training; covering what each one is actually good at, what it's not, and who should be doing each one. They also get into why meal prepping is one of the most underrated fat loss strategies, how Coca Cola literally had cocaine and caffeine in the original formula, the first ever online pizza order, and the guy who spent 10,000 Bitcoin on two Papa John's pizzas in 2010. Then they answer questions from Instagram on rest days and strength training, how new personal trainers should get their first clients, whether GLP-1 drugs actually cause more muscle loss than regular dieting, and how to balance eating the same meals consistently versus adding food variety outside of a prep.
