#321 Jack Hallows - Science Based Vs Old School Lifting

Jack Hallows joins to share his charismatic style of evidence based training communication.  We talk about: -Are science based lifters and old school bodybuilders really that far apart in training ideology?  -What are the big rocks of evidence based training? -How to approach training to failure? -Are machines as good as free weights for muscle growth? Each topic tackles the practical nuance that will help you get more out of your training.  This episode is among the earliest in a significant shift in discussion topics and theme for this podcast going forward. I still believe there’s a goldmine here for coaches, but this is now intended to be a valuable resource to the end users, the enthusiasts, and even the beginners who need our help navigating the often confusing and conflicting world of fitness and nutrition. If you find this valuable, please share it with a friend who needs it. Thank you.
