Myth Busting! Some Of The Top Health And Fitness Trends That Drive Me Crazy!
💥 A gram of protein per pound of body weight? Cardio is bad for women? "I'll only be on the GLP-1 for a year"? Time to bust some myths.
Gabe and Annie Rench take on the health and fitness trends that drive Annie crazy, and they do it with Biblical common sense instead of bro science. First up is a listener question: how should tradesmen and farmers train when their workday already wrecks them? Then Annie goes after the protein craze, the idea that cardio is bad for women, the belief that HRT will fix everything, and the "I'll just get off the GLP-1 later" plan. Don't let fads run your health.
