Eggs, Steroids, and Fitness Myths (ft. Brendan Cobbina)

In this episode, I’m joined by Brendan Cobbina, also known as "The Black John Cena," for a conversation about fitness myths, the importance of mastering the basics, and why dirty bulking and overcomplicating fitness don’t work. Brendan shares his insights on the RDL technique, the dangers of steroids for young gym-goers, and why he advocates keeping fitness simple. We also discuss gym culture, building glutes effectively, and the role of protein in muscle growth. Become a 1-2-1 Online Fitness MemberMy InstagramBrendan's InstagramMy XBrendan's XBrendan's TikTokMy FacebookYouTube ChannelArticlesFree Workout PlanFree Fat Loss GuideFree Grocery Gameplan GuideFree Protein Cheat SheetSubscribe to My Email ListCalorie Calculator Timestamps:(00:49) Who Is Brendan Cobbina?(02:14) Why RDL Form Matters: Avoiding Common Mistakes(05:19) Overcomplicating Fitness: Keep It Simple for Progress(07:42) Eggs: Cooked vs. Raw and the Truth About Protein Absorption(12:57) Building Bigger Glutes: Effective Exercises and Nutrition Tips(18:05) Why Alcohol Is a Major Culprit in Stalling Fitness Progress(22:40) Steroid Use Among Teens: A Dangerous Trend in Fitness(30:16) Dirty Bulking: Why It’s Not Worth the Trade-Offs(39:28) Social Media’s Impact on Unrealistic Fitness Standards(45:25) Gym Community Benefits Beyond Physical Fitness(53:05) Where to Find Brendan Cobbina Online
