Ep 48 | Are You Ready to Ramp up Your Training?

05/02/17 • 63 min

We’re joined for a second week with “The Professor” Billy Skorupski and open the show with this week’s installment of “What’s Billy Wearing?" We get into the topic of research and ask the question: “Can we rely on and wait for a strong research base to make health decisions?” Basically: if it’s not harmful, why not try it regardless of evidence? The bulk of this show centers around the best listener question we’ve had yet. Basically, what do you do when you’re intimidated as the “newbie” in the gym and when do you move on to put in some uncomfortable hard work?

Professor Billy joins us in the studio to discuss a recent study that seems to show that running may actually extend your life. Billy talks about the validity of the study and whether or not you can actually draw causation in a study like this. You can find an article and additional link to the study here: https://www.nytimes.com/2017/04/12/well/move/an-hour-of-running-may-add-seven-hours-to-your-life.html?action=click&contentCollection=Europe&module=Trending&version=Full&region=Marginalia&pgtype=article In addition to running, we cover trashy TV, Zombies, tying knots, and our typical nonsense. Thanks for listening, sharing, and leaving us a review!

Ep 49 | Is Organic all that Great

This week on the show we examine organic food and produce. We ask questions like: Is organic more nutritious? Is organic safer? Does organic taste better? The answers, as you might assume, aren't so simple. In addition to organic, we chat about meat sweats, finding the right trainer, and former athletes re-starting a workout routine.
