  Episode #13

  "Orthometria & Strength vs. Hypertrophy" with Dr. Stu Phillips, PhD

  Jul 29, 202657 minS2

  Season 2 Episode 13! I'm so freaking stoked for this episode! Dr. Stu Phillips, PhD joins the show this week. Stu is one of the leading protein and exercise science researchers in the WORLD. He's a senior lecturer at McMaster University in Ontario (we've had a lot of his students on the show), and like most Canadians... he may be the nicest person on the planet. I've been trying to get Stu on the show for over a year and I'm so honored that he was finally able to set aside some time to come and chat with the EIB audience. In this episode we discuss a new term that he's coined "Orthometria", basically the compulsion and obsession with measuring everything health and fitness related. I had a recent viral post inspired by this exact topic by Stu on my LinkedIn HERE . We discuss why obsessing over your tracker, HRV's, RHR, VO2, Sleep scores, etc, might actually be doing more harm then good. We also had some additional time to dive into a really interesting discussion about strength vs. hypertrophy. How the two are correlated, but why it's not always a 1:1 ratio. I think you will REALLY enjoy this episode and if you like it you should 100% check out Stu's new podcast with fellow McMaster scholar Dr. Martin Gibala called " Real Exercise Science ". For those who like to watch the episodes we did have a small technical glitch in the recording where we lost Stu's video (towards the last third), but thankfully the audio stayed intact. I'm hoping to finish my new book in the next few months, with the same title as this podcast. In the interim if you love the show and want to support, I'd appreciate you picking up a copy of my first book ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠"How 2 Look Good Naked"⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ . I've also recently launched a new Substack page with the same name as this podcast " ⁠Exercise is Bullshit⁠ ". If you're a fan of the show I hope you'll consider checking out my Substack.

  Episode #9

  "High Level Sports Performance" with Elliot Newman

  Jun 3, 20261h 12mS2

  Season 2, Episode 9! We've got a great guest today. Elliot Newman joins me from all the way across the pond. Thankfully we did our episode well before the 4th of July, so there we no Independence Day jokes necessary. Elliot is a performance coach for elite athletes. You can learn more about his services HERE . Elliot and I connected on LinkedIn and struck up a conversation about different aspects of Strength & Conditioning, one of my biggest pet peeves. After hopping on a quick call I realized we had quite a bit in common in our approach to training and resilience, and I wanted to get him on the show to share his vast experience and expertise. In the episode we talk a lot about how to structure training programs for all athletes, not just high level performers. However, Elliot's vast experience with elite athletes certainly adds another exciting dimension to the conversation. The truth is... it's all a lot simpler than many in the strength and conditioning community would have you believe. I think the listeners will find a ton of value in this one, and I look forward to having Elliot on again in the future. I'm hoping to finish my new book in the next few months, with the same title as this podcast. In the interim if you love the show and want to support, I'd appreciate you picking up a copy of my first book ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠"How 2 Look Good Naked"⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ .
