In this episode, we share some personal updates — Aaron’s recent trip home, dealing with family loss, and balancing that with staying consistent at the gym. We then dive into how gym equipment may impact overall training quality and how/why fitness advice is often oversimplified. We chat about the importance of effort in reaching fitness goals, the idea of abbreviated training, and where it fits in today’s world. We break down different training methods, emphasizing consistency, progressive overload, and making training work for you.
