from The Better Basics Podcast · host Matt Stone and Dylan Waldhuetter

Hot Topic: Steroids, Placebos, and the Power of the MindWorth It? [Viral Exercise Edition]: 100 KB Swing ChallengeMain Course: The health and fitness space has gone big time bro. You know the vibe, if you’re not waking up at 4am, meditating in a cold plunge, and doing 100 push-ups before breakfast, are you even trying to be healthy? While not all of this is bad, it's certainly not for everyone. Especially those of us that just want to be stronger, fitter, and healthier. The problem is that most of the content we're fed isn't about what actually works but instead is all about the algorithm. Matt and Dylan discuss what's going on, who's left behind, and what actually matters.Q&A: I’ve been doing hip thrusts regularly for weeks, I’m progressing in weight and feel my glutes working BUT I’m never sore afterwards. Am I training hard enough or am I doing anything wrong?
