99 not out. Dan described your body as a furnace in a recent instagram live with tom.... he could not live that down.... but seriously we talk about how your body reacts to having more energy in a surplus and the heat by product. we also give our best glute exercises we give out... as there are some questionable ones that people rate, obviously this is our own opinion! We have a chat about who we follow or have followed in the past to shape our fitness industry careers. Lastly we have a bit of a rant about the role of genetics in body composition.

A range of topics this week... we kick off with a biscuit ranking... that was awful... awful job by toby. we give advice to what we do over the christmas period and how to adapt your training and nutrition. tom gets a bit wound up about some exercise selection and gives an outline on what should be done when you are ordering your workout. also this moved onto the talk about the magical "stabiliser" muscles... WHAT ACTUALLY ARE THEY? tom gives you an answer. lastly stupid things is literally medieval torture...

Dean somerset from... Global Fitness Fame... and awesome Canadian joins tom and dan for a chat about.... nearly everything - where dean comes from - what he calls himself - new projects he's starting - how your anatomy dictates your movement or your clients - online training - 121 training why its great - silly things trainers have said - movement versus muscle groups - why he loves steak.

We sit down and talk about products that fitness pros sell... for profit... without being that ethical... either unresearched. expensive... not needed products to clients willing to believe them. we talk about the amount of load put through your joints when you are overweight, and how much that can effect your rehab. we look at Vegan Xmas dinner.... and a ridiculous stupid thing.

So the fitness and nutrition trolls were out in full force this weekend.... and not in a good way.... and just being stupid. why do people attack other online about ridiculous things??? we never will know. but we tried to help and point some fictional info followers towards the fact, which actually worked pretty well! also tom gets a bit angry about exercise selection... and dans got a new chin exercise.

Is being injury prone a real thing? we discuss all the variables that can lead to this title.... also a bit a of our option on young sports start that have sadly died in competition due to heart trauma. furthermore we discuss the scope of practice on eating disorders for the fitness industry after the recent Louis Theroux documentary. to lighten the mood we chat yogurt..... also dan and tom got teased into some trolling over the weekend... the fish took the bait.

Two big controversial figures in health and fitness.... an thats just our stupid things on the internet segment... we chat the actual science on a box jump and why to use them and why to bloody not butcher them! dan also got teased into a sugar debate... and gladly joined me on a ice cream debate
