## Resource

Kelly and JK start with both sharing updates on using Brick, a physical device that blocks apps/websites until you tap the phone to it. JK also announces Help Me Understand will relaunch in July back to broader topics while he starts a new fitness-focused podcast, Make Fitness Make Sense. They then discuss the Enhanced Games and debate whether coaches/influencers should disclose use of PEDs, HRT, fat burners, peptides, or GLP-1s, referencing a GLP-1 disclosure controversy and advising people to look for long-form content to vet consistency and context. 00:20 Episode 79 Topic Tease 01:11 Kelly Brick Explained 07:21 JK Brick Review 15:05 Podcast Relaunch Plans 19:19 Enhanced Games Overview 25:53 Enhanced Games Reactions 33:39 Can Drugs Break Records 36:11 Optimization Manosphere Angle 37:14 Disclosure Rules For Influencers 45:53 Coaches PEDs And Trust 47:10 GLP-1 Controversy Case Study 50:23 How To Vet Fitness Claims 52:08 Wrap Up And Contact Info Follow the podcast at ⁠⁠⁠@liftingrunninglivingpod⁠⁠⁠ Email us at ⁠⁠⁠liftingrunninglivingpod@gmail.com⁠⁠⁠ Follow JK at ⁠⁠@coachjkmcleod⁠⁠ Follow Kelly at ⁠⁠⁠@runningklutz ⁠
