## Resource

In this episode the guys break down 5 weird but proven ways to quickly trigger muscle growth — one set to failure, blood flow occlusion training, the all-day workout method, doubling your protein intake, and post-workout sauna. They also get into a 1967 Senate committee that predicted we'd only work 22 hours a week by 1985 (and how wrong they were), the birth control predictions that went completely the other way, why alcohol consumption is dropping (hint: it's not because people are healthier), and a Harvard multivitamin study showing two years of use made people five months younger at the molecular level. Then they answer questions submitted through Instagram — covering weekly vs. daily step goals, how often you should expect to progress in training, preventing stretch marks during weight loss, and the best high protein high calorie snacks.
