Returning to the show after the extremely successful Episode #99 together, Sumi Singh and Lyle McDonald are back to talk about what their past year of competitive powerlifting training has been like.

Travis and I discuss considerations for learning how to fit exercises to the needs of the individual and our thoughts on vilifying exercises. Travis dives into his background as well […]
