All right, ladies and gentlemen, welcome to this week's episode of the Massanomics Podcast.

I am Tyler, and next to me is Tommy. What's up? And Tanner. Hey, everybody. Did you guys hear about this newest powerlifting video game that's taking the world by storm? Oh, I have only seen such things. It looks like it's an xbox 360 exclusive though so i might might all the best games you know the more hit you know why it's on 360 it's only 1999 right

i mean how many xbox one games do you get for 1999 none of them all the best everything that you can get is 1999 yeah but did you see there's also a USAPL one? I did see that too. With Russell. Ori? Yeah, there you go. I never know how to say his last name. I think that's how you say it. I don't really know.

Yeah. He's missing a few key features in the USAPL one, like the trend and the D-ball. The super enhanced supplement stack. Someone asked. The super enhanced supplement stack. Someone asked... The unlocked characters. Someone asked Russell if he stole that from us

or if we stole that from him. And I commented on there. I said, Russell stole it from us, but we stole it from Johnny Candido and Johnny Candido probably stole it from someone else because there is nothing that... I don't think putting yourself... I said the Simpsons.

When it comes to The Simpsons. I can't imagine even Johnny. He did it years ago, but I can't imagine he was the first one to put himself on a Madden cover. People have been doing that stuff forever. I've been doing it for literally days now. As soon as you saw that, you're like, oh, what could I be all on a cover of? Get me on that 2005 Michael Vick cover. They did catch a lot of heat for the Xbox 360, though.

Really? A lot of people didn't really get the whole thing of the 1999. Yeah. It's cheap, you know? Yeah. It's been around for a while. The question now, is this going to start the curse of the USPA cover now? I've heard a lot of comments about that, actually.

Oh, was that in there? Did people say that? Yeah. They're worried that it's going to be the curse, and now he's going heard a lot of comments about that actually. Oh, was that in there? Did people say that? They're worried that it's going to be the curse and now he's going to be hurt. The Masonomics curse? Would you play? Here I thought it was the Masonomics effect. It was a positive thing. It might be the Masonomics boost though.

This is the year he's going to break some records. He'll probably be strong now that we've done this. He might probably get jacked next year now. Would you play a power lift? An EA Sports powerlifting video game? I mean, I would, of course. I can see how they could just turn into a lot of mini games. Like when you play golf games and it's just like timing. I could just see powerlifting games being that.

I can actually see you got the two thumbsticks. You got to do something with the gun triggers slowly in the rate which would you do that while the rate with which you pull down till you get to depth and then it's got to be up and it also can't be crooked or you're going to start getting weird it almost be like if they would suck yeah it'd be like if they took the free throw aspect of basketball games and made it way more complicated and then just made the game free throw and then yeah the heavier the lift gets like the windows you have for any error like get completely eliminated it would need to be a game where there's a lot of uh just the videos that run like that you like see the just a lot

of cuts like where they put your character in there and scenes over and over it would have to be very much like a franchise mode like a story mode where you're like yes all right you're gonna get a sponsorship how hard are you gonna hustle yeah Larry's the main guy, and it's just black Tom Cruise just yelling in the background the whole time. How boring would the game be, though, if it was actually like real life? You would literally just play it. It would be as boring as actually just watching powerlifting. It'd actually be kind of like in Fortnite in the beginning before you go,

you're just kind of in this group of people. It'd be like if you're just in the group of people all the time. That's all it is, yeah. But i would picture you would play the game like four or five nights a week for like an hour to two at a time well you'd have to yeah nothing very exciting would happen and maybe after you did that for like six months then you decide to get serious and then and then the game gets a little more challenging you only actually get like just like a little barely measurable bit better. Yeah.

And I made the comment, too, to someone else, no one ever wins because just no matter what you do, you always wish you would have done a little bit more. Well, and there's always somehow a record that's better than yours, too. So it's just a zero-sum game. Yep. So I cannot imagine that anyone's beaten down the doors to make a powerlifting game anytime soon.

No. And if we weren't clear, there was an Instagram post of Larry Wheels. On the cover of EA Sports. I do think a bodybuilding game would be really cool where you just are fighting in the pose down. Stepping in front of him back and forth. I don't know if uspa liked the game or not all they commented was this emoji like yeah where you're thinking i'm like no does that mean

you're thinking it's good or thinking it's bad passive aggressive shit you pulled right there yeah sorry for the free ad yeah probably better than whatever you were doing which is nothing i actually when i saw it i was oh, they have an Instagram account. That was kind of my thing. Yeah, yeah. Good for them. So, Tanner, you brought a little heat to the podcast today. Tanner brought a sack.

It's been, how long do you suppose it's been? It's been. Do you think our friends at Oprah Powerlifting could interpret some of that data for us? Be like, how many episodes has it been i don't know if they've even they probably haven't even listened long enough like that when we used to have a sack segment do you think it's been 50 episodes if you know what we're talking about right now it means you've been listening yeah you're an og so i do think though you probably have a closet i think our friends at open power lifting should start getting compiling data for the podcast you know what actually they i i don't let me forget i want to talk about something with them a little bit here oh do you want to now well we can right now yeah we'll just put the sack

on hold yeah all right people this is called suspense building anticipation um so they had they had uh they had a post today um they were saying they were working on uh iphone compatibility and some kind of other things and then they said like what features would you guys like to see on the site and my first thing is i think it'd be cool if they just started to do like just kept kind of like pre-templated filters almost built for people just so you go in and check because i'm sure like if you you know there's a lot of things in there that we're not smart enough to figure out how to pull the reports on i don't even know if you have the ability to do that but like the first thing that comes to mind is like you guys know the imdb internet movie database

like they have the top 250 so you can always go in there and just see the top 250 well like you know if they just you know start to have like predefined lists like you know top men's of all time or top deadlifts of all time right now you can kind of find those by clicking through and doing a little work but if they start to do some crazier ones like top men's of all time over six feet tall oh that would be tough though they don't have height though but you know just like some weirder things i do think think that the height and the hard part, too, is the competition body weights at each deal. I don't know that that stuff is listed. Of course, there's probably no way that they can go back and retroactively get on that. On most of them, no.

But some of that data, I think that's like, even height is a piece of information that would be a really cool filter. Oh, just to like compare that against like certain lifts and just see like how it does or doesn't affect. Yeah, that would be cool. And like how at this height you need to be a certain body weight. Because they can do a lot of things via weight class that's pretty good. Also left and right handedness. That would be interesting. Yeah, if only like for a powerlifting meet they made you fill out a very comprehensive medical history.

That's what I would like to do before a powerlifting meet. Like, why do you need this for open powerlifting? I would like these sorted exclusively by mother's maiden name. Something just that you mentioned that, but I think would be cool, they put out, there's obviously some programming or something that would go behind this. It wouldn't be necessarily all that simple, but some of it would be cool that they put out – there's obviously some programming or something that would go behind this. It wouldn't be necessarily all that simple, but some of the charts and stuff that they put out, if there was a way that you could just run those, say you wanted to see what are some of the that they almost had like a almost like a like for like excel it'd be kind of like a macro section everywhere like you can go in and they have all these pre-built filters and you can click it and like us stupid people with that stuff don't have to worry about trying to figure out how their database works they can just click the button and

be like oh those are the top guys that weigh over 200 pounds that bench this much and just have answers like that yeah my favorite thing still is the like the like the graph analysis that they do yeah yeah those are really cool like have those are those even are those on the website just like there that you can filter through or are those a social media publication that they do i think just social media so i think that part would be pretty sweet too you can be you to see the visual interpretation of yeah is always really cool like when we were looking at like the deadlift breakdowns, like what percentage of deadlift.

See that in a pie chart and you're like, Jesus. Anything over eight is kind of a big fucking deal. It's pretty cool to see. Same thing with how they had that with the bench. You see even a 500-pound bench was at 1% of people. And then 600 is like.0001. It's funny how you get so desensitized to those numbers because of

the internet though. I can name just as many guys that can bench 600 as guys that can't bench 600. Because those are the guys that we watch a lot of. And those are the people that have a big following. So what happens now, and that's why I think people's expectations get skewed. They're like, well, I see 1,000 pound squats

literally every fucking day on instagram right and but it's actually in actuality it's so rare and it's so much outside the lines yeah right yeah yeah you know it's the same five people yeah and even if you talk about like an 800 pound deadlift which is not as rare as a thousand pound squat like you've, there's a lot of different people you could come across on the sphere of Instagram that would be doing that. But in real life, like those people are pretty few and far between. Like you're not just like stumbling upon people at those strength levels all that often. And Unless you lift at Massanomics. Then you're outside the lines. Open powerlifting though. Listeners

out there, do whatever you can to help us get to 10,000 Instagram followers before them. We're kind of having a little thing. As much as we like them, we have to be there. Yeah, for sure. It's all about who's there first. They have a head start, although we

had a much longer head start. As of this minute in time, they have a head start. What you really need to do is get us more followers. Follow them. Don't do that.

Follow us twice. Just make more fake accounts for us that's this artificially inflate the numbers we don't care about actual results or anything we just want no it's purely a vanity yeah so tanner let's talk about your sack yeah well first of all there's pretty cool there's presents for everyone. Whoa, presents. Holy. And what we've got in the sack is a bunch of stuff from Spud Inc. Yeah. They sent our way to try out.

Or wait. Let me. I meant to give you those ones. They probably fit you better. It's because my biceps are bigger. I'll just. Yeah, I want the bigger ones. What?

I don't get the big size? I gave you the smallest one that they sent so what do we got here off tanner um what do we got well this is a car this is all from spud inc and they did send a card and they said uh hope you guys have fun trying these out let me know if you have any questions thanks dale so this would be uh stuff from dale and and spud sp Ink. And this first thing that we're opening is the same for all of us. What are their technical names? Forearmor. And what it's like is, I would say, it's like a compression cuff. Yeah.

Like this part is a compression cuff, and then it's just a strap that you can tighten. Then you can tighten. That's actually you can make like with some of those compression cuffs they're so tight it feels good while you're lifting but you don't like that feeling like in between sets because it hurts and i think the idea here is that you can tighten it up do your sets loosen it up yeah yeah without having to like rip a big thing on you right i i have not tried these i just like this already okay okay i get it very nice because i've still been dealing with like nearly debilitating elbow yeah so i think you could probably put these like

are on your knees or something too yeah you know because they make these in a lot of different sizes. Around your neck. Not your neck, my neck. In the right setting. But you also could use these for, is it called occlusion training? Yeah. I think that's one of the selling points, too, because you can really tighten it up. Yeah, you can. And now you guys get to listen to us just close and open Velcro for 10 minutes.

You guys ready? Hold on. We'll get this. You guys want to feel what it feels like? Yeah. You can clamp these things out. Some good radio. Satisfying.

Do you guys know Velcro is a name brand? Do you know what it is actually called? Hook and loop? Yeah. Hook and latch or hook and loop? Hook and loop. I did not know that. I had to look it up the other day because I know what it is actually called? Hook and loop? Yeah. Hook and latch or hook and loop? Hook and loop. I did not know that. I had to look it up the other day because I'm like, what the hell is hook and loop?

Yeah. If you look at it really, really closely, you can see. Yeah. It is a series of hooks and loops. Yeah. Fun fact, similar case is not very often I get to draw on my old job. Did you know that the term Freon is also a brand name? Really?

Owned by DuPont. Wow. It's just refrigerant. Oh, okay. To be honest, I thought Freon was almost like an element. It is, I think. Really?

I don't know. It would be like... No, it's not. Kleenex is probably the most common example of that, that everyone calls it a Kleenex, but it's really a tissue. Post-it note, you could say, too. Yeah.

I'd say that's in the same category. Velcro also, every time you use it, it's less effective than the previous time you used it, I believe. It wears out. Not this one, though. Not these ones, though. Not this premium Velcro. Do you know how I know that?

Because these were given to us for free. And that's how I know that these are the best. I like the red. I do like the red. I'm wondering if they maybe make these in yellow, too. Spud makes a lot of yellow stuff. They do throw a little yellow in once in a while. They sent us all red ones.

The red looks nice, though. So, yeah, these are called the 4 Armor, and they've got a size on them, and I think that's literally just you would measure wherever you want to put it. The size, my understanding from what I'm looking at this, size is the loop size yes yep and then there's an overall length as well oh there's two numbers oh yeah so is the bigger yep yep so my so the 16 forearm it makes sense because you would go around yeah yeah man these guys really thought this through here yeah so these are pretty cool yeah i would say very uh well made you know i mean like anything spiky that's what i was gonna say everything proof yes yes but those are pretty cool yeah the four armors yeah

those are awesome and i did look it up i think these cost 20 or 30 dollars i can't for a set of two though that that is the nice thing. A lot of cuffs come with just one. That was like my big gripe with the other forearm cuffs that I've got in the past that weren't from Spud Inc. Because it's like, you buy one. Yeah. I was like, well, listen. What do I do?

What do I want? All my shit hurts. I need fucking more than one. You don't want to be uneven either. Right. But with all Spud stuff, A, like we said, it's made pretty well. And then B, it's never that expensive. No, it's very like.

I feel like they're pricing it at a price that they can make money and also like not be. Yeah, it doesn't have like some like, why are they coming up with this? Like you never say that when you see their things. Right. So that's the thing they sent us that we all get to enjoy and then they sent us some uh other stuff here for for the gym and i really have not looked at much of this so and i don't know if some of this will be all that visually appealing right now to look at but we can sure this is the glute ham strap and i don't know if we can take that out if we want to but i think what

that is is you would wrap that like around a bench so that you could do like a glute ham raise kind of strap yourself in yeah lock your ankles or calves in okay so that you could do um glute ham raises which would be very hard without but you they showed someone doing it in a bench press and putting a band across the bench and then using the band like as assistance because you know because they were a fat power lift yes i mean if you're athletic it's probably yes no no you're gonna need a partner because that's not an easy exercise but But this, again, very heavy. Yeah, super heavy duty. Very well made.

I wonder if they also make, like, seat belts. Oh, did you see Chuck's front squat harness? Oh, just wait. Oh. We may have such things. Yes, there's uh first thing in here is zurcher straps looks like some kind of weird whips and weird sex bag over to my house these are zurcher straps so i think you would everyone knows what a zurcher squat is probably. Well, maybe some people don't. Why don't you explain it?

Well, in a normal Zurcher squat, the bar is sitting right in your elbow crease, which if you've ever done it before, it feels good. You're holding the squat out in front of you. And by good, he means the worst. So what the idea here is you can still do that, but have it not quite hurt so bad, where you would put these in your arms where the bar would sit, and then

you can do two things either attach these to the bar or attach these to like our a belt squat machine you could do it either way gotcha yeah so you could uh zurcher squat zurcher but they they show it with a bar or just a barbell actually uh-huh which would be the normal tool that you would use to do it but this way it apparently just hurts a little bit less yeah because you have a strap on you instead of a yeah steel barbell digging into my sensitive and that thing literally has like a seat belt strap on it there yes like that yes and then this last thing here is a uh front squat harness for the belt squat and that actually has a seat belt has a seat belt clip on it that's the front uh which is actually nice because if you

think about it getting in and out of you know i mean getting it like getting in and out of any like strapped or shoulder harness or anything is a pain in the ass if you have to unclip anything. It also has a pretty substantial hook on it too. They don't underdo anything where it's like I kind of skimped on that piece. I have never gotten anything from Spud that was like, well,

this one's probably not going to hold up. If you got stuck in your pickup in the winter, we might be able to rig this up and pull you out with my pickup. Well, I mean, you'd just have to pull it. Oh, yeah. Not me, though. Someone's got to steer.

Yeah. So that's what we got from Spud Inc. Wow. Very cool. They just kind of wanted us to try it out and I suppose let them know our thoughts. Put it through the ringer. Yep. I'm excited.

I'm stoked about the forearm or stuff just because I have had this fucking elbow thing for like a year. And you'll really be able to crank those down too. So, I mean, it's like if there's any amount of compression that can help that, like that would be the tool. If the answer is more, I can give it more. Sometimes in the moment, it's like that feels better and then after you're done it's like okay yeah maybe i shouldn't have overdone it but i i think these are a cool idea yeah i i think so too i wouldn't be surprised if people start ripping that idea off even i could picture some people doing that there's lots of people that do those types of things.

And they are the worst. So we have all this spud ink stuff in front of us. We also have a gym full of a lot of spud ink stuff. Yeah. If you guys had to pick one or two top spud ink products, what would they be? Hands down my favorite thus far is my elbow sleeves i got those with no expectations uh-huh and i've i mean now how long have we had those it's been over a year i would say almost yeah maybe close to two almost two years no i don't think it's been that long i think

it's like one it's like about a year though but for sure about a year and like and i still use them not every time i bench but when things get get heavy, like, you know, I'll do it. Overhead stuff, a lot. Like, I feel great still. They're still tight enough to where my hands will go numb. So, like, they haven't gotten wore out necessarily to where they're not effective. Still easy to get on and off. The only thing that's, like, wear on them is, like, the the tag which is a teeny little tag sewn into a

stretchy product the corner of the tag starting to peel off which and from a functionality standpoint that's not yeah that's the uh in their advertising loops are still hanging out yeah yeah and i only put them on via the loops yeah and there's been more people since we've had those at the gym that have gotten those two so what is it like $30 for the pair or something? It's really cheap in comparison. Even that, $25, maybe $25. And they hold up. I mean, I don't know.

I don't know of anybody that uses them as much as I do. Do you think the factory they get them from in China is pretty good then? I think that means that they're holding the factory in China to a high standard. Or maybe they just know what they're doing when they make them. Something that I've seen the people using that I'm not exactly sure where this came from, I think maybe Chuck got it too, is that attachment for the cable machine that you do leg curls with. Oh, I haven't seen anyone use that yet. Yeah, it just locks into your heel.

Larry does it like every day. I forgot we had that. And you do a leg curl with the cable machine. It's actually pretty effective, yeah. I haven't used it, but I've been seeing it used a lot. My sister had to buy one because she was training in a regular Globo gym. And there was no leg hamstring curls. So she had bought one, and that's what she had used yeah and then we have

the i guess for the cable machine too just the handles yeah your standard handles like those get used a lot yep but we have the reverse hyper strap that from the reverse hyper my favorite piece has been the belt for the belt yeah that's what i was because after after using um i think the first thing we had was like a one really crappy leather belts that had the loop on it. It was almost like a cheap weightlifting belt. Kind of like a filet-o. It was almost like a dip belt. Yeah, and so using that is like, ooh, this does not feel good.

And then I think we were using the belt off of the Reverse Hyper, which was a thousand times better, but still didn't seem to be quite right. And then when we got that belt for the belt squat, I remember you saying that. I was like, they make a belt for a belt. That just seems like they're just making stuff now. And then you got it, and it's like, oh, this was made for it. It makes the whole thing fit and feel really, really good. So that one is my favorite.

Yep, I agree. And I have is my favorite. Yeah, I agree. And I do like, I have the knee sleeves. And yeah, I mean, those are great too. I wear my SBDs more often than those, but I like having options. And every time I use them, I don't, yeah. Ross uses his all the time. Every time I use them, the loops are such a nice thing.

Like, it's like,, God, that's great. Just yank them right up. If there was a way to attach them to your loops to your SPDs, would you do it? I would say so if they could make it just like, yeah, it makes the process really easy. Not like it's a huge, I mean, talking about like. Cuts a half hour off your training. Yeah, yeah. You don't have cabs like I do.

Mine is a bit of a problem. Yeah. I get pretty red in the face putting my knee sleeves on. I don't like it. That's like my pre-workout cardio. Yeah. Some days I can get kind of heated putting them on. It's just like, you know.

Brace. Start bracing and holding your breath, bending over. Well, Spud Inc., thank you. Yeah. Very awesome. And if you guys don't have any of their stuff, definitely check them out because they know what they're doing and put out a top quality product. That is for sure. Yeah, they sponsored this episode of the podcast because they gave us stuff.

If you would like to sponsor an episode of the podcast you should give us stuff too and if you wanted to sponsor uh multiple episodes the best thing you could give us would be money yeah i mean if you sent us let's just let's talk some numbers here if you sent us twenty thousand dollars we would we would actually a few episodes we would actually name like episode 113 the you know we could probably toostitos Fiesta podcast. At that point, we could probably even let you pick the subject matter, and we'll figure out a way to talk about it. We'll change the name of the podcast to whatever your company name is.

Or if it's just you. Like, listen, Steve Johnson. No, there is a Steve Johnson. That's too direct. John Doe. John Doe. Heywood Jablomi. Amanda Huggenkiss.

They can change our jacks. Amy Hoff. Any of those people, if they want to sponsor this podcast. Robert Oberst. We made the Mastinomics verses of him versus Alberto Beef Jerky. And Alberto sent him beef jerky. Like we really are in the business of making dreams come true. I think nobody sent us.

We did all the middleman. Apparently Kale Beck sent that. I hadn't seen it. He sent it. He said, he goes, look what you did. I was like,

Oh, that's great. Glad we could help, help, help. I'm glad we could help. We help Obi fall off his staying lean and mean wagon. Couldn't you see him being like a spokesman for a beef jerky company? Oh, yeah, he totally fits.

I could just, the ads would write themselves. Is there many more foods that build themselves as a man's man food? And then you get a guy like that, it's a natural fit. Actually, why every beef jerky company doesn't have half of the strongmen on their team? I don't understand that either. I agree. It seems really logical. Now, we launched, we had that one.

We also have had, since we last podcasted, one of the ones that we had in the tank that I was really excited about was the Kai Green versus Tom Green. Okay, I personally thought this was one of the funnier ones. Yeah, yeah. Maybe it's just a little too fringe for some people. Now, here's the thing with it. green versus tom green okay i personally thought this was one of the funnier ones yeah yeah maybe it's just a little too uh fringe for some people now now here's here's the thing with it we knew going into it that we had to have the kai green fucking a grapefruit thing yeah if you don't know what that is i'm just saying it's a thing that happened and it's on video and you can google it and find that out uh also that tom green

jacked off a horse and only had one testicle someone made a comment they said didn't tom green also have sex with a dead moose and i don't know if he had sex with the dead that was in a movie eminem said that he humped it yeah but that was like on the movie. That was like a, you know, I wouldn't hold him to that. No, right. However, let's just break down here. So, Kai Greene versus Tom Greene. Squabbled with, Kai Greene is Phil Heath. Tom Greene, Drew Barrymore.

Yep, that marriage did last. They both have one Kai Greene hairstyle, Tom Greene testicle. Best cinematic role, Kai green and stranger things he was in season two yeah and uh tom green and freddy got fingered which one of i i would say i've seen freddy got fingered a lot of times when i was in like seventh grade i watched that movie that movie is so fucked up in that like in that there Now, here's the thing about that movie. 80% of that movie is not funny. It's just the lines.

The 20% of that movie that is funny is the funniest thing that's ever been made, ever. Like, just the random bits where he's... The old man walks into the deal and he's playing the keyboard and he has strings attached to all of his fingers and there's just sausage and bratwurst because it's such an elaborate idea oh yeah and it's just like this is like something a third grader would he's like he's like daddy would you like some sausages and the backwards man yeah

backwards man's good backwards man but then there's some shit where he was just doing tom green shit which was not that funny where it's like oh your boy breaks his leg and for shock value we have a bone sticking out. Tommy goes and licks it. I'm going to lick it. That does not need to happen for this fucking show. I really like the Zebras in America cartoon. Yes.

With his hooves. Look at my hooves. My hooves, daddy, my hooves. So that was easily one of my favorites. And now the really interesting thing here is is how long after did we publish this? About three hours after we published this, Kai Green comments. I did not tag Kai Green in this. Usually I always tag everyone.

And I was like, yeah, just, I mean, yes, he did fuck a grapefruit, but like somebody type. No. I wonder if now there was a hashtag. There was a hashtag Kaiai green but i'm wondering if maybe so does he sit there and search hashtag the other question is at 3.8 million followers all of his posts are pictures of him but they're not taken by him so i almost wonder if there isn't somebody else that runs yeah that's very and very lucky. That many followers that runs his shit. And then what they do is they just constantly will search for hashtag Ky Green.

And then they'll be good sports. But I mean. They were good sports. They were good sports about it. What'd they say? This is funny? Or a bunch of laughy faces? Yeah, they said that's funny.

I'm like, all right. That's how you got to be about it yeah well i mean and nothing in there is uh untrue like he is the one that had a sex tape with a grapefruit so someone paid him to do it yeah it's not like it's not like he was just like he knew that people were going to watch that when he made it he like he didn't make it like oh i hope nobody sees this it's also not a thing where he's like where he was just like alone in his house like, grapefruit's looking pretty good. Somebody set those parameters and wrote a check.

Probably a sizable check. Listen, I'll be honest, guys. If you guys really want to send us some real money, it may not be released as an episode on YouTube, You can do things with grapefruit. It may not be released as an episode on YouTube, but Tanner will absolutely be willing to fuck a grapefruit for you as long as you pay me most of the money. But no, that was one of my favorite ones.

The other one was, was that the two we had this week? No, there's some more. Tim Allen and Brandon Allen. I really like that one. That one was good too. Also educational. I found out something new reading that interesting fact about tim allen that i think maybe some people didn't know

tim allen actually yeah so the the let's should we run through this one yeah sure uh sponsored by uh tim allen binford tools brandon allen cannabis which is true if you follow like he basically has some beard sponsorships maybe some apparelarel, and then just, like, whatever dispensary is selling him weed that day. Biggest bulk, Brandon Allen, 360 in 2016. Tim Allen was the Santa Claus in 1994. Some serious bulk. Yeah.

Earns Brandon Allen $11,000 for second place at the U.S. Open, which is a sick burn. And 150 per vert pull. No. Brandon Allen 11,000 for second place at the US Open which is a sick burn and 150 pervert pull no yeah that's true yeah

and then 22 million dollars annually for Tim Allen like that's and that's mostly through royalties

for like tool time or whatever home improvement that still is in syndication yeah got caught skipping high rep sets that Chad Wesley Smith Tool time. Home improvement. That still is in syndication. Got caught skipping high rep sets that Chad Wesley Smith programs for Brandon Allen. And Tim Allen got caught trafficking 650 grams of cocaine in 1978.

And spent three years in prison. He did. Yeah, and spent three years in prison. So was he famous at that time yet? No, that was before. Home improvement didn't start for about 10 years after he got out of prison. Was that like his first show was Home Improvement? I don't know.

He was a stand-up comedian before and during and after. A really dirty stand-up comedian. He also has a book out. I had read this book when I was in high school, I think. It's called Don't Stand Too Close to a Naked Man. But it's Tim Allen's book. close to a naked man um but it's a tim allen's book it's actually like goes over like kind of all that stuff when he got sent to prison so like he's kind of his like autobiography and shit and it's really fucking good i just

assumed he was still kind of famous at the time and somehow just it got swept under the rug and wasn't a big deal but nope that was just like yeah it was like 10 years before he really yeah he was that was just like what he did so... Yeah, that was just what he did. Santa Claus serves some hard time. Yeah. Old Saint Nick. Buzz Lightyear. So, speaking of serving hard time,

have you guys watched Evil Genius on Netflix? I have watched and finished, based per your recommendation. What did you think? The first episode was the best episode. I wanted more about the collar. Yes. Yeah. You know?

Yeah. Maybe just tell Tyler the basics. It's basically like there was a real life saw incident that happened. Oh, I heard about it. I think it was 2003, right? Yeah. Yeah. Pennsylvania.

A guy robs a bank. He gets called. They call the police after he leaves. They pull him over like a guy robs a bank he gets called the police or they call the police after he leaves they pull him over like a block away from the bank he's a pizza delivery man and he's cooperating with the police and he says i have a bomb on my neck i didn't put it on here someone put this on me i i need to go do these next steps to get this bomb off or it's going to explode i'm going to die you can see and so the cops look and yes there is a bomb strapped to this guy's neck and it's with a metal device and they can't get it off and um so i mean really the show was just about how this bomb got on this guy who did this to him and and how it all went down and four episodes it's a quick

watch i would recommend it yeah i would too and yet it's another thing where like gosh why don't i know about some of this stuff i had read it awesome yeah yeah i i sound awesome i had heard about this one on reddit like years ago yeah and completely kind of i almost thought it was like one of those urban legend type things because oh yeah who who has someone capture them strap a bomb to their neck and like basically put them on like a treasure hunt yeah if you want your freedom you have to do all these things yeah and um but yeah it was a real thing so i would recommend checking that show out damn it won't spoil the ending on that one but yeah everybody everybody lives and it's a happy ending

nobody goes to jail it was just an elaborate prank, and everyone laughed it off. It was actually the first season of Punk'd. Ashton Kutcher came out then, and it was like, is that who did Punk'd? Yeah. Justin Timberlake was in like 80% of the episodes. Just Punk'd it over and over. What do we got new down at the gym, Tanner? Anything?

We have a barbell on the way. Really? On the way. Really? On the way. Yeah, an Elite FTS safety squat bar. I like it. It was on sale, and I've looked at it for just long enough that I figured I'd buy it now when it's on sale with free shipping, or else wait and then force myself to buy it at some point in time when it's full price. I'm like, why didn't I just buy that when it was cheap i believe some people have referred to this safety squat bar

as the cadillac of safety squat bars it seems to be that way i mean i've never used one myself so i'm i'm very curious to find out yeah is there a lot of is there a lot of companies that make safety squat like rogues um i guess that's a good question no titan makes one that sucks Does Rogue make one? I guess that's a good question. No, Titan makes one that sucks. There's a lot of crappy ones. The one we have in the gym is not that bad.

That's a pretty decent car. The padding is obviously the easiest part to fail. And then two, I think just kind of the ergonomics of it, the angles and how it's built and how everything is positioned, I think is kind of the other big one. Yeah, because I think if they fall in love with one like setup with angles and all that stuff and the leverage is like if that's only useful and for one application it becomes like we talked in the past about like the kabuki one the transformer bar which is pretty cool and then you can you're not married to that one setup i also want that you can kind of switch it but i think the elite fts one is the

old standard as far as like a straightforward like that's just the one that's probably just the most useful for most applications and holds up the most yep holds up the best they say the padding really hold is really hold like it does not compress like the one we have now does compresses yeah yeah so that'll be here in eight to ten weeks based on our barbell ordering that's what i was gonna say god only knows like does anybody deliver barbells quickly probably just rogue or titan maybe i don't know i never ordered a bar from titan i guess everything i've ordered from them is fast elite fts started making a power bar too which i was pretty curious it's brand new i'm curious to see what that's like it's about the same price as a texas power bar and i'm wondering if it's not similar to a texas power bar but i

really like to see it yeah i want that too you said it is similar price yeah it's like you could get it for like 250 bucks yeah it's not bad at all we're gonna have a lot of bars down there now yes there's a lot of bars you can't. Yes, there's a lot of bars. You can't probably go to a place that has more bars than what we do. I just, I don't know. I think every member could be at the gym, and there would be enough bars if everyone showed up at the exact same time. So the last day of the gym's existence, you'll say,

everyone take a bar. Everyone gets one. I've been taking a bar once a week. So there is a, now it's other than this place. I want you guys whip out your phones right now while you got them. Go on Instagram. I want you to look up. Same for, are you talking to us or the listeners?

Everybody. If you're driving your car right now. Do it anyways. Fuck it. I want you to go to saiyan strength gym that's s-a-i-y-a-n strength gym one word and this fucking gym opens now in just a couple of weeks and i've been following this since i don't know where i stumbled across when they were unboxing some of their stuff how do you what was it again i know i've looked at this a i y oh s a a n strength gym oh yeah and they have

fucking everything a lot of it's still them like setting stuff oh whoa but like you're talking every like alico bars alico plates they've got fucking alico chrome plates yeah like fucking everything is as top-notch as possible like custom fucking dumbbells 45 pound plates yeah every all the machines are dope as shit the yeah it's i have not seen a place as equipped as this those alico 45 pound chrome plates are like the coolest plates. Yeah. Those are. So you're talking like shit tons of platforms.

Look at all of these competition plates behind these platforms. Like it just looks like a solid tube of shit that's like fucking 50 feet long. And it's just plates on plates on plates. So you can actually. See, I thought those Aliko, those chrome ones were like a one a one-time thing like can you actually still order those i think so i think so i guess i don't know i bet they're really expensive yeah they like i bet they've got like fifty thousand dollars worth of plates if not more i would love pound calibrated 45 pound plates is just a funny thing yeah right i i though i would love to figure out what's behind this gym.

Like, as far as, like, who is funding this? How many members are they supposed to have? And, like, how long until they actually start making money? Because they've got hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of equipment. Oh, it's in the millions. I mean, you're talking many monoliths. Yeah. They have full piles of rogue rigs. I was counting one time when I went looking through here.

There's like, I want to say like more than a half dozen different variations of leg presses. There's one, two, three, four, five or six monoliths. All Elite FTS. Fucking crazy. I don't know. At the Mastinomics Gym membership membership price it would take a while to recoup that uh yeah or just 10 000 members so i'm wondering though like so if you look at a place like this no man so just let's just break it down right so you're gonna go to a place like this and

trained it looks cool it's built they got real equipment you know i mean it's not just a fluffy shitty yeah cardio joint so how much you suppose that's gonna cost there's only so much you can charge though because you can charge though because you can still go squat and use dumbbells in any place so that can't be 400 bucks a month i don't know what like what does like barbell brigade you know i'm thinking of some other places that are kind of like that yeah like i'm i'm always really curious what a membership is there just because it's kind of if you have any connections with barbell brigade let us know what they charge or uh the zoo with Bradley Martin.

Yeah, like that zoo culture. Do you think either of those are over or under $100 per month membership? I would guess around there. I don't know how a place like that. I bet they're not much more. They can't be much more than that. They just can't be because I just don't know what you can do. But if I'm looking at this place and I'm like,

I would pay a premium to train there just because you have everything. But also the question is like, how many members do you need and how long does it take to make any of this money back? And looking through this stuff, like I can't imagine there's a whole lot of people that even understand what they're getting when they go there. Right. You know, like there's a lot of people that's like, there's a certain point where weights are just weights and bars are bars, you know?

Yes. Like it is definitely, they're way past the point of like, you know, the diminishing returns here, you know? Oh, yeah, yeah. That extra half million, I mean, I don't think they're going to recoup that. These are all leg presses, different angles. Yeah. Which is awesome.

Yeah, I think this place looks really cool and it'd be sweet to go there, but I just, I don't know. California's a different place though that's true it's like aside from all the other stuff then there still is that really doesn't work anywhere else i don't think we've got like there's like six full rogue power racks in here too yeah like which would be more than enough for almost any gym yeah yeah yeah so anyway i guess if you i don't know if these people want to send us some info that'd be cool or i'd like to know grand opening and they want to fly us out there

we will yeah we will videotape it we'll i'll miss some squats while i'm there but you'll look good doing it with chrome plates all around i will yeah that's the thing that was you'll get to a place like that, too, and there's no, like, dickhead filter, probably. So you're still going to have somebody leaving these just beautiful, using these incredible bars and loading them up with these beautiful chrome plates and just doing fucking, like, heavy banging around. Shrugs.

Pin pulls and shrugs and rack poles and slamming them into shit and yes that would make me sick yeah probably just buy another one yeah i get that point yeah so tanner rumor has it you've been reading books don't believe everything like text like audio books or actually books on tape yes i've been reading them auditorily yes by osmosis that's how i like to read i i read two uh two of two juggernaut books i i guess uh one more renaissance periodization the two books i read were the first one i read was Scientific Principles of Strength Training. That's by Mike Isertel, James Hoffman, and Chad Wesley Smith.

Is that the recommended starting point? Well, let me, that's the one I read first. The second book I read was solely by Chad Wesley Smith. It's called Thoughtful Pursuit of Strength, Juggernaut Training. called A Thoughtful Pursuit of Strength, Juggernaut Training. And just the very quick of it, The Scientific Principles of Strength Training is a lot better book in many ways. I would highly recommend anyone to read that book, A Thoughtful Pursuit of Strength.

I would also recommend to read. You said that's the Chad Willis Lee Smith one? Yeah, that's the one that he wrote. Is it because you have a lot of beef with Chad Willis Lee Smith? No, no. I really like him, and I really like all of his training methodologies and everything. I would say maybe it missed some of the steps in a normal book being published process where they make sure that these three pages aren't a complete repeat of the last three pages. Like literally, I was reading and then I got to the end of, say, page 40. I got to 41 and it started over on of what was on page 37 for three pages again.

Oh, really? But were the pages still numbered correctly, though? They were numbered correctly. Okay, so it wasn't. It was just completely reprinted of something that was, and for like three pages. And then I'd get to a page where some were gray in the book, but like they didn't change the ink color of the text,

and you couldn't read it. Oh, so the contrast was like. I had to get it just right in the light to even read the page and you couldn't read it. Like I just had to like, get it just right in the light to even read the page. So audio book that one, but there was some things where I'm like, me like a lot of spelling errors too. And I don't, I'm not a good speller.

No, I also wonder too, if some of that is missed by going, I'm guessing the route they go with that is like a self publishing route. I'm certain. I'm sure. I'm certain they're not going through like a self publishing route. I'm sure. I'm sure. I'm certain they're not going through like a big publisher. Cause that's a thing of the past.

Cause we had talked about this before too, but I know a handful of people who have made like self published book. You write it, you edit it, you fucking build everything. Like now Amazon will guide you through the whole thing. Yeah. And they'll,

you can pick the binding. You don't, you'll never touch a physical copy of a book. Yeah. Now you, you end up making less money on it because they're not producing a hundred thousand copies of it they'll produce they're producing them like one at a time right so like but i've seen it i've got a couple of those that while they're good and some of the people that i really like and respect a lot nothing is more distracting to me than a fucking typo and and i i have had some of these books where every like five or ten pages there's a typo and it literally it will take me out of reading

i'll go in and i'll be like you fucking spell the word god damn it and it's and it's it shouldn't be that distracting because you know what it means it's at least that frequent in them and it's but but when that happens in a book it's like when a person uses a phrase wrong in person some people are willing to dismiss that and i'm like i can't you're breaking the rules here like i gotta call them out on that like i have to call them out on that right i can't let them say that that is not not a bird in the hand and yeah god damn it yeah that is not what that is but that that book all that being said the content is really good but if you were to ask me what it's specifically about it's hard to pinpoint because it jumps around like it is i'm quite fairly certain, sure, a lot of the book is a summing of various articles that he has written over time.

So you go from one chapter to the next and it's like... A little disjointed. Yeah, disjointed, definitely, definitely. Because it is literally just various articles that he's probably put together over time. But all the information is really good scientific principles of strength training on the other hand is a book yes like is a really good book too and there again not to take anything away from the information and a thoughtful pursuit of strength that it's good but even just sitting here it'd be hard for me

to tell you what like i know i learned things in, but it's more like reading through it. And I'm picking out things that I think are really interesting. And, and, but scientific principles of strength training goes through the seven principles. Um, it starts at the beginning with almost like a glossary of terms that you need to know to read the book, which I speak the language, which I think is a really good idea yeah and uh you know some books might be written at like a phd level like where you pick it up and you're like i don't know like i mean i don't want a complete textbook like a super training i think is that way yeah and then some might be almost catered to far below like and what an intermediate might want to want to become too

basic yeah yeah and this is a really good if you're someone that's i would say you know an intermediate lifter even to intermediate to advanced this would be a really good book for you to pick up and especially if you've've, uh, got questions about programming, you know, it's basically all tied around, around programming in one way or another. It goes through the rules by their most importance, but the rules, uh, are number one is specificity. Number two is overload. Number three is fatigue management. Number four is SRA curve, which is a stimulus recovery adaptation. So that's talking about the frequency of your training. The fifth is variation in your training.

The sixth is phase potentiation. And the seventh is individual differences. And every one of those chapters is really good where you'll read it and be like, huh, wow, that makes a lot of sense to me. How much do you suppose getting, not just reading through that book, but getting a grasp, at least just a grasp of each subject covered in there,

how much do you then when you walk away from that feel equipped with which you maybe probably don't need to seek out any assistance in programming? Do you feel like you're going to do your programming? Yeah, I am working on some things. I have started to do that based on this, but this book alone in a vacuum wouldn't be enough to get you there,

but this would be a really big piece of the puzzle to get you there, I think is what I would say. Do you think if they were to pay us money that we would say that it is all you need? I think they would even say that it's not all you need, but they would even say you know they would say that's not all you need but it's the best for my own puzzle it's the best piece i've found that's given me more useful information than anything else because programming you know you can lift for a long long long time and not really it's the least glamorous part of the entire lifting process

like right it's awesome to talk about you know's awesome to talk about the weights you're crushing, the food you're crushing, all this crazy stuff you're doing in the gym, but it's not cool to talk about, like, oh, yeah, I sat down the other day and put together these numbers for what I'm going to do for the next 12 weeks. Or you're like, yeah,

I realize that I probably need to take three days off in a row now because it hurts when I sit down to poop. Yeah, yeah. Most of the periodization stuff hypothetically it's not it's not an actual thing that's ever happened but it could could most of the periodization stuff is applicable to any type of training that you're doing but obviously what i'm interested is in the power lifting side of it and that's what they funnel to eventually but they do kind of cover it on a bride broad topic that you can apply to any athlete, like a football player or anything, but then they funnel it down to power lifting a little more specifically as it goes on. But some of the stuff, just like a phase potentiation talking about hypertrophy,

hypertrophy phases, strength phases, and peaking phases. Just like that alone, I developed a much better understanding of that. And I didn't have a good understanding of that before. Can you quickly break down what you would define as each one of those stages? Yeah, it's pretty simple. There's an actual definition that you can, I might have some of the numbers slightly wrong, but in a hypertrophy phase, which usually any block would be three to seven weeks long, usually always ending in a deload. That's the fatigue management.

And it depends on the person where, you know, how frequently they're going to need to deload. Daily. Yeah. Deload daily and nightly once in the morning what is deload uh but what was i talking about uh the definition of the phases oh yeah so in hypertrophy you're basically in percentage ranges you'll be between 60 and 75% of your one rep max of any exercise that you're doing. And your rep range will be from seven to 12. And you'd stay within those rep and percentage ranges throughout that block of training throughout that hypertrophy training and that and strength training would be then 75 to about 85 85 to 90 depending on the lifter and you would be between three and six rep range and then peaking which is

hypertrophy and strength training are really blocks in themselves peaking as i look at that as a little bit of a separate thing but you, you know, it would be 90% plus in that range and usually one to three reps. Yeah. Yeah, it makes sense. Yeah. But it's really good. I would highly recommend it.

How long of a read is it? It's a pretty robust book. I think it's maybe like 400 pages or something. Yeah. It's a book. Yeah. And actually, I read it. Then I read pages or something. Yeah. It's a book. Yeah. And actually I read it. Then I read his other book that I read.

Then I came back and kind of reread a couple of the parts of that book just because it's, I was trying to read it to actually understand it, not just read it to be like, all right, last page. Did it. Woo. I chucked that one out. I find the only way that I get through something like that where I'm trying to understand it is I have to have like I have to take notes. Yeah.

I can't read a book. So I don't read anything like I don't read like fiction. Right. So if I'm going to read if I'm going to read a thing, I'm reading it to learn something. So like for the most part, everything that I'll do if I'm reading, there will be like a pen and a pad and i will take notes and i may never revisit those notes there's a good like i've had many books i never ever ever look back at those notes helps you're learning but because i write it down you're conscious it goes in if it goes onto that paper it probably is in my brain and that's the only reason i didn't have to look back at it but if I just keep flipping past I don't know about you but I can kind of like

read the words on three or four pages and be like wait what and go that's easy to do when I'm reading to actually learn I end up rereading like not every single page but I'll read for a bit and then I'll be like wait a second I quit paying attention

like I was reading and I quit paying attention and I'll be like better go back because now I don't even know where we've gotten here. I do think reading like that is the thing that goes, because of the way we do everything now. When I had a real job, I did my entire job before, like a pretty technical and sometimes with some risk, while also listening to podcasts constantly. And then sometimes while listening to podcasts and also just dicking around on my phone while I'm doing these things. So doing three things. Yeah, and really with almost no problem whatsoever.

But it doesn't work when you're actually trying to maximize your information retention. Right. Or your effectiveness at anything really. Yeah. Let's be honest. I was also bad at being. Podcast listening. I was bad at listening to podcasts.

I wasn't that good at dicking around on the internet. And then I was just simply passable. I think that's one thing a lot of people like to like, yeah, I listened to this podcast and I also did this and I did this and this. And you did. And like, they're kind of bragging about it. I'm like, well, you also kind of barely did 10 things. And the 10 things you did, you did really poorly. Like that's nothing.

There is. That was one of the things that they say now is like, like that multitasking is a total myth. That doesn't exist. No, I'm terrible. I don't even attempt to do it. Like if you want to talk to me while I'm typing, I't even do that i have to do one or the other but that's what i find myself yeah everyone has to like they're like you're lying if you say you're multitasking just because you're doing the things you're not doing them well yeah and and i i find myself all the time like

thinking i'm it's the rudest thing in the world to do like i'll be sitting around dick around my phone like someone will come by and talk to me. And I'll look at them while I'm still scrolling on my phone and talk to them. But I'm not paying attention to... Well, really, all your brain is thinking is, why aren't they done talking yet so I can focus on my phone? But also, I'm also not doing any of it. It's a switch.

And nothing's happening. My brain's just fucking wasting energy. Yeah. And you don't even need a, an outside source for that to happen. You could, I could literally be here like this. This happens in my daily life sometimes. And someone will be talking and I'll be like, wait, what did you just say? Is he still talking to me?

Like Mike forgot what this was going on. My go-to in that case, when somebody has been talking and it's not even that I've been blowing them off like my brain I just glaze over for a moment and then they'll leave something something will end and they're looking for a response from me and my answer is always like that's crazy

yeah that's crazy crazy I just told you about my mom being admitted to the psychiatric ward. It's crazy, Tanner. Dave Chappelle has that sketch. He's like, dude, you ever wonder, like, what people are thinking about when you talk to them? And it's the one guy, and he's, like, thinking about, like, he's, like, thinking about, I think, like, a girl's boobs or something.

And then all of a sudden, he's, like, thinking of a monkey, like, throwing poop. And he's just like, it's, like, literally of a monkey like throwing poop it's like literally the dumbest shit but it's like that's kind of not far from true yeah not at all uh brandon franklin actually i saw he had a post about driving he was talking about driving long distances to uh meet up with his girlfriend and he'll be going down say i don't know the interstate or a big highway and he'll look and be like, oh, how did I get here? Where did those 25 miles just go? I feel like I, not that he's on his phone or anything,

but just like that he completely. It's the same thing when you drive home from work, just because you've done that drive 10,000 times, you get in your drive and you're like, who just drove the car here? I mean, I do the same thing but it's you know because no uh the uh it's interesting on the driving thing actually we had a i had a there's a we have a group of people coming in to run like a kind of a seminar deal and so we had them do like a live takeover of my gym's instagram feed and so and anyway they were did like a live video

you know but one of the girls she she was just driving home from work so had the phone in the deal on the dash just live so she's just talking while she's driving pretty fucking innocuous like it's really not any different than being on the phone she's not even having to engage visually in it just kind of look at it just like you're in the dash right some do-gooder fucking sends me a message on that fucking thing oh yeah it's all pretty funny until someone fucking i'm trying to find the exact words like till somebody till you run somebody fucking sends me a message on that fucking thing oh yeah it's all pretty funny until someone fucking i'm trying to find the exact words like till somebody till you run somebody over because you're doing cinema while you're driving and i was like my answer was well first off who says fucking the words doing cinema and i said that through my business account which maybe was not

the most professional thing but i was like man fuck you don't say listen don't call them yeah and also don't call them out for that because that's not near as harmless as what i do when i drive all the time which is fucking text and drive and dick around and google my own name whatever shit you shouldn't be doing while you're driving on your phone i do it 100 of the time always because i'm the fucking worst. But I'll admit it. Most people won't. But I'll fucking own it that I fucking dick around on my phone while I drive all the time. And I know it's dangerous. I'm just not fucking cognizant or disciplined enough to not do it.

And that's okay. But don't fucking high road me. Especially about that, which is much less fucking serious of a crime. That's like no different than being on the phone while you drive. Well, right. Exactly. Especially if they have it set up while you're driving. Well, right. Exactly. If they have it, especially if they have it set up before they are driving and then going,

it's just like a hands-free. Exactly. It's literally no different. No. Yeah. It's just that it's video recording you. Yeah. Like,

I guess that's the difference. Yeah. So anyway, next time anyone wants to tell me their opinion on something, go fuck yourself. And don't say cinema. Don't ever say cinema. Unless it's like a really rare... Going to the cinema.
