Gym and Tonic

Robbie and Amy are back for an episode about busting popular fitness myths! Does lifting make women bulky? If you didn't get sore, did you have a good workout? And do you simply need to do a ton of crunches to have visible 6-pack abs? But first, Robbie shares an update about his Denver Broncos fan friend, and Amy and Robbie discuss what HYROX means (Hybrid Rockstar?!) and the workouts they've been doing to train for one.

Did you miss us?! Robbie, Jairo and Amy are back for a brand new episode of Gym & Tonic, where they discuss all things BUTT STUFF: best exercises to strengthen the glutes, what it means when your glutes can't engage properly and why this might happen, best practices to create and improve that mind-body connection between your brain and your glutes, etc. But first, they catch each other up on Amy's Costa Rica trip, Robbie's insane interaction with a fan at a Broncos game, and the latest Streetlifting event hosted at C2F! ENJOY!

The gang shares weekend plans, discusses Amy and Jairo's birthday celebration and Amy's new apartment, and reiterates how gross it is that Robbie eats canned salmon in the gym (and on road trips, apparently). Then they get into the nutrition of it all: discussing how to stay on track during travel, the significance of eating enough to fuel one's workouts, and the importance of breakfast.

Before giving a ghost update, Amy and Robbie discuss tracking calories and the gray area of it all. Amy shares her own experience of why she doesn't personally track calories and discusses intuitive eating. Robbie mentions a study they found that considers the implications of calorie tracking. They also discuss exercise obsession and its consequences. And are fitness watches really accurate?
