The Netflix series, You Are What You Eat, is a follow-up to the series “Game Changers” from the same production company with the same vegan slant. This time, a study of twins and how their bodies react to omnivore and vegan diets is the throughline. Does it offer legitimate proof that the vegan diet is superior? Or is the whole series just a vehicle for vegan recruitment? Why is porn part of the study?

How important is nutrition in powerlifting? | Topic Thunder Dec 29, 2023

Show notes

We are supported by Legion Athletics. Use our code “goodcompany” for 20% off at legionathletics.com.
What role have we given nutrition in our powerlifting careers? When did lifters switch from trying to be as big as possible and eating a ton to being strong at “normal” body weights? Is it more about performance or feeling good.
We also discuss the fact that strength and effort are both normally distributed -- not just in the general population but also in niche places like top powerlifting gyms.

The ethics of combat sports? | Topic Thunder Dec 22, 2023

Show notes

We are supported by Legion Athletics. Use our code “goodcompany” for 20% off at legionathletics.com.
This discussion started around a hypothetical question about why animals are allowed to compete in some formats (like racing) and not in others (fighting). While some would find the spectacle fascinating, animals can’t really give consent to fight…but they can’t consent to race either. Why is one ok and the other not?
This evolved into a broader discussion about combat sports and whether or not humans fighting is entirely ethical either.

We are supported by Legion Athletics. Use our code “goodcompany” for 20% off at legionathletics.com.
We turn to the internet for insight on how to set goals. Do we get good advice? Or did we fall into a pit of filler? Is there a difference between an achievable goal and a realistic one?
Before we get into that, we kick around a few questions like, “Why do Crossfitters drive Teslas?
