187: Save a cow, eat a vegan
Veganism, is it the healthiest way to eat? Are all forms of animal products bad for you as some vegans suggest? If you are a meat eater are you destined for ill health and an early death? What does the science say? This conversation can stir up emotions, especially when extreme points of view are proselytized. The same kind of emotions that are stirred by religious zealotry. The same kind of emotions that some will experience when they read the extreme title of this episode! The Mind Pump position is that extremism (and being offended) in any form is rarely warranted. In this episode Sal, Adam and Justin set emotion aside (almost all, anyway) and look to science to reveal the RAW TRUTH about veganism. Please subscribe, rate and review this show!

184: Listen...Your body is talking to you
In the "Beast Mode" world of fitness, one thing that is almost always ignored is the concept of listening to your body. When such a large majority of fitness "professionals" preach to "push through the pain" it is easy to ignore the fact that your body is talking to you and is often telling you to slow down. If you have listened to this podcast for some time you will know that Sal, Adam and Justin are advocates of the "less is more" philosophy. Even though they have been jokingly referred to as "Team No Sweat," time and time again they have seen people improve their results in the gym by listening to their bodies and working smarter rather than harder.

179: Mini-bulks & mini-cuts for more muscle and less fat
For many muscle builders bulking and cutting are extreme events, blowing up like marshmallows and then undergoing long, painful periods of deprivation to lose the fat. Is this really the best method for building more muscle? Sal, Adam & Justin argue lay out why the better approach is using mini-bulks and mini-cuts to take advantage of the short-term anabolic benefits of eating in an excess without putting on a detrimental amount of fat.
