Intermittent Fasting, Lower Belly Fat & a $50 Supplement Stack (w/ Ben Barker)

Intermittent Fasting, Lower Belly Fat & a $50 Supplement Stack (w/ Ben Barker)9 Sept55 min

Strength training. Functional training. VO2 max. Zone 2. Sprints. Every podcast tells you something different is the one thing you can't skip — and if you've got four hours a week and a job and kids, that's not guidance, that's noise. This episode is about cutting through it.

Ben Barker is back to take your questions. What to actually do with four hours a week. Whether the lower belly pouch is a fat problem or just how you're built. How to get your spouse moving without ending up in the doghouse. What a supplement stack looks like on fifty bucks a month. The honest verdict on intermittent fasting now that everyone's talking about meal timing. And a question from a dad whose third-grade daughter came home crushed after getting made fun of at school. Two dads, no script, nothing to sell you.
