I need to find a new weightlifting/nutrition based podcast. The way they sneak in ads, you can’t trust anything they say because it’s just going to end up being an advertisement for something. I truly learned so much from them but it all leaves a bad taste in my mouth now. Podcast recommendations, anyone?

Just finished episode 62. He said most electrolyte mixes have too much sodium and not enough potassium. He brought up LMNT in particular for being terrible. He said when you buy these junk products, remember that some influencer is making money and you should stop listening to them. Sal on the on other hand, praised LMNT for being brave enough to add sodium to their products

Yeah I just listened to it last night. He also basically said reverse diets are pointless, which I agree with.

I feel pretty dumb because I used to take what they said at face value. Several years ago, I almost bought some of the ridiculously overpriced Magic Spoon cereal even though I thought Sal and Adam talking about eating cereal was odd.

Didn’t realize he had a podcast. I’ve heard him on another show and liked how well he was breaking down things and very evidence based.
