S10 EP14: Bodybuilding: The Good, the Bad, and the Functional

In today's episode we talk about traditional bodybuilding, the
go-to training for aesthetic based changes in body composition.
Yes, we have qualms with the methodology, with the dieting, and
with the huge focus on body fat that can lead to disordered body
image & eating habits.. BUT!


 We aren’t here to bash bodybuilding. There's some GREAT
stuff about it!: The tempo…slowing it down is invaluable for all
things! The focus on form with slow and deliberate movements..and
isolation has benefits and creates a mind-muscle connection. And
the PUMP! The pump is real! When you take the good from
bodybuilding and leave out the bad (like 6 inch heels) you are
left with functional bodybuilding. And that’s what we are talking
about! You can get the aesthetic without the injury. We’ve done
the lifting and dropping for you and want to tell you about our
new functional TTSL bodybuilding cycle. It’s for everyone, yes
YOU.
