Fitness Stuff (for normal people) - A podcast by Tony and Marianna - Mondays

When it comes to fitness advice, there's a lot of noise—and even more bad takes—about how men and women should train, eat, and recover. In this episode, we break down the real, research-backed differences between male and female physiology that actually matter when it comes to lifting, dieting, and making progress in the gym.We unpack things like:How hormones like estrogen and testosterone impact recovery and muscle growthWhether women really “should” lift lighter weightsWhy men might benefit from more rest—but women might thrive on higher volumeHow to actually adjust your training during your menstrual cycleWhat women with PCOS should focus on when it comes to dietAnd why “train like a man, look like a goddess” isn’t as far off as it soundsWhether you're looking to optimize your workouts, understand your body better, or just cut through the BS, this one's for you.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Sign up for Fitness Stuff PREMIUM here!!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Access to ALL advanced 12-Week Training Programs, Bonus podcast episodes EVERY Friday, Weekly Legion supplement giveaways, and more.Legion Athletics:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠20% OFF Supplements with Code "FSPOD"⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Tools mentioned in episode:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Fitness Stuff Calculators (Calorie, Protein, etc.)⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Timestamps:(02:30) What we're talking about today (07:30) Potential to build muscle(24:00) How to change your workouts(30:56) Cycle Syncing(35:17) Nutritional Differences
