Myles and I discuss a lot, from training mistakes to full-body workouts and proper footwear.
In this episode, I sit down with fellow strength and conditioning coach Myles Nesbeth to discuss common training mistakes, the pros and cons of full-body workouts, and whether footwear matters in strength training. We also dive into gym intimidation, corporate gyms, and a fun overrated vs. underrated debate covering fitness trends and beyond.
