Over pronation is the cause and result of bad posture and pain. Even shoulder pain. Working out with a centered talus bone is a great start. You can even put a band trying to force your ankle into a pronated state (inward sag) and fighting it while doing a leg exercise (squats, lunges, etc) sets your muscles straight! Try it out. (If you're duck footed your knees are compensating for over pronation)

Split Science | Buns & Thighs Shorts s2e5.1 In this episode of our podcast, Paul and I delve into the fascinating world of workout splits, exploring the ins and outs of various approaches to organizing your training routine for maximum efficiency and results. As we kick off the discussion, Paul starts by breaking down the concept of a full body split, emphasizing its simplicity and effectiveness. He explains that with a full body split, you're targeting all major muscle groups in a single workout session. This approach is ideal for beginners or those with limited time, as it allows for adequate rest between training sessions while still providing sufficient stimulus for muscle growth and strength development. I chime in, adding that a typical full body split might include compound exercises like squats, deadlifts, bench presses, and rows, each targeting multiple muscle groups simultaneously. I highlight the versatility of this approach, noting that it can be easily tailored to individual goals by adjusting the volume and intensity of each exercise. Paul jumps back in, providing examples of how a full body split can be structured throughout the week. He suggests training three days a week, with each session focusing on different movement patterns or muscle groups. For example, one session might emphasize lower body exercises like squats and lunges, while another session could prioritize upper body movements such as bench presses and rows. We discuss the benefits of this approach, including increased frequency of muscle stimulation and improved recovery between sessions. I point out that full body splits are also great for beginners because they allow for plenty of practice with fundamental exercises, helping to build a solid foundation of strength and technique. However, Paul cautions that while full body splits are effective, they may not be the best choice for more advanced lifters or those with specific aesthetic goals. He explains that as you progress in your training journey, you may need to incorporate more specialized splits, such as push/pull/legs or upper/lower splits, to continue making progress and avoid plateaus. In wrapping up the discussion, we emphasize the importance of choosing a split that aligns with your goals, preferences, and lifestyle. Whether you're a beginner looking to build a foundation of strength or an experienced lifter seeking to maximize muscle growth, there's a split out there that's perfect for you. It's all about finding what works best for your body and staying consistent with your training regimen. -- Watch live at

Why whey protein? It's one of the easiest proteins to digest. It is a highly filling snack, When made correctly it is very healthy for you.

It isn't only for meatheads. A high-protein diet will aid in weight loss.

This isn't just an ad for whey protein, here's some real knowledge from a pro:

Eat your lean body weight in grams of protein per day and you will see a difference in your metabolism. Your lean body weight is what you weigh without your fat. If you don't have a scale that measures fat percentage, go online and look up fat percentage examples of your gender.

Guestimate what percentage you are, and then multiply that times your body weight. That's your estimated fat content. Your lean body weight is you without your fat, so fat - actual body weight.

Here is the formula: (ABW) - ((Fat%) x ABW) = LBW

ABW: Actual Body Weight

Fat%: Fat Percentage

LBW: Lean Body Weight

For example: If a man weighs 250, and has a fat percentage of 20%, the formula would look like this:

250 - ((0.2)*250) = LBW

250 - (50) = LBW

200 = LBW

200g of Protein per day

(when multiplying with a percentage, move the decimal over to the left 2 times, (ie: 20% = 0.2)
