In this episode the guys break down the top 5 ways to do cardio ranked from worst to best — running, HIIT, steady state, walking, and playing. Sal shares his return to jiu jitsu after nearly 20 years away, his brother-in-law going easy on him, and why he expects to drop 10-15 pounds of muscle doing it. They also get into California pressuring utility companies to issue contracts to LGBT-certified businesses and the certification process, a new study linking diabetes to a 60% higher risk of dementia and why strength training is the best prevention, Sal doing the Organifi parasite cleanse wrong, Sal's grandfather drinking gasoline to kill a tapeworm in Sicily, and Adam having a dream about Doug running a bunk bed rental business out of his six-car garage. Then they answer questions from Instagram on step-ups vs squats, strength training for a 13-year-old soccer player, whether you should stop heavy barbell lifts after 40, and the wildest gym stories from their careers as trainers.
