What does "functional" really mean? It means the strength you build in the gym carries over to real life. The guys share the 5 most functional lifts: the big 4 (bench, deadlift, squat and overhead press), sled work in every direction, heavy carries, Cossack squats, and pull ups and dips. They also talk about Organifi Beauty Gummies, why full body three days a week works so well, a four minute strength study, an inverted iron cross, the single leg RDL on a landmine, how GLP-1 users lose key nutrients, and the Caldera Lab regimen. Then they coach live callers submitted through mplivecaller.com.
