In this Q&A episode, Eric Trexler and Eric Helms open with a recap of their trip to Norway and announce a new MASS partnership with AFPT International. They then work through a string of listener questions that end up forming a surprisingly cohesive arc: how much total daily energy expenditure actually varies between people, RED-S and low energy availability, what really drives satiety, and a deep dive into building or retaining muscle in a calorie deficit. The back half tackles body recomposition head-on, why the rigid "bulk vs. cut" mindset comes largely from competitive and enhanced bodybuilding, and how natural powerlifters demonstrate that recomp is closer to the default state than most people assume. Iron Culture is proudly presented by the MASS Research Review. Mostly because Helms and Trex are co-owners. massresearchreview.com If you're in the market for some new (ultra-high-quality) gym gear or apparel, be sure to use code "MRR10" for a 10% discount over at elitefts.com If you'd like to submit a question for a future episode, head over to: massresearchreview.com/ironculture Chapters 0:00 - Intro 10:24 - Q&A begins: Is maintaining 2400 cal "above the mean"?

On this episode of Stitch Please, Lisa heads to Belgium to chat with fiber artist and content creator Deborah Butera of Unraveled Studios. What started as a series of failed attempts at knitting and sewing as a kid eventually turned into a full blown love affair with fiber arts and thankfully, Deborah finally stopped running from the yarn.Deborah and Lisa discuss creativity, finding your path after a disastrous first year studying politics, and building a life centered around making beautiful things. Packed with inspiration, laughs, and crafty wisdom, this episode is a reminder that your creative journey doesn't have to be perfect it just has to stick.=====Hosted By: Dr. Lisa WoolforkSenior Producer: Krystal HillProducer: Mike Bryant=====Where You Can Find More Deborah!============Dr. Lisa Woolfork is an associate professor of English specializing in African American literature and culture.

In this episode the guys break down the pros and cons of the five most popular workout styles right now, Pilates, yoga, bodybuilding, powerlifting, and hybrid training; covering what each one is actually good at, what it's not, and who should be doing each one. They also get into why meal prepping is one of the most underrated fat loss strategies, how Coca Cola literally had cocaine and caffeine in the original formula, the first ever online pizza order, and the guy who spent 10,000 Bitcoin on two Papa John's pizzas in 2010. Then they answer questions from Instagram on rest days and strength training, how new personal trainers should get their first clients, whether GLP-1 drugs actually cause more muscle loss than regular dieting, and how to balance eating the same meals consistently versus adding food variety outside of a prep.

The elite coaches dominating the fitness industry aren't out-programming you; they are out-communicating you. For twenty years, Matt Levine didn't just survive the brutal meat grinder of competitive powerlifting—he used its systemic failures to rewrite the rules of modern strength education. Now, he's lifting the curtain on why chasing "optimal" templates is a death sentence for your business, and how the future of coaching belongs to those who master human psychology over spreadsheet algorithms. INSIDE THE EPISODE Why the obsession with "optimal" programming is destroying young coaches and alienating clients. The hard-earned boundaries that separate a sustainable coaching business from a fast track to burnout. Inside the elite, raw environments that permanently distort a lifter's perception of human capability. Surviving five ACL tears and navigating the identity crisis when the barbell stops moving. The hidden traps of cash flow and why expanding your business during prosperity is a fatal mistake. How becoming a father forces an execution-level mastery of time management and professional efficiency. MEET THE GUEST Matt Levine is the USPA Director of Education, Managing Partner of Legacy Barbell, and a twenty-year veteran of the high-performance fitness industry. His authority wasn't built in a classroom—it was forged by competing at the Olympia ten days after tearing his ACL, navigating a broken vertebra, and conquering five separate joint reconstructions. From convincing a conservative city government to fund elite powerlifting equipment to architecting the USPA University curriculum, Matt has dedicated his career to turning the chaotic wisdom of the gym floor into scalable, repeatable business systems for the next generation of leaders.

Send us Fan MailWe are making something official that's been true for years: Liz is the Head Powerlifting Coach at Fortis Powerlifting. She's the one writing our base team powerlifting programming, building the meet-day spreadsheets, and creating the backend systems that let us handle multiple athletes across flights and still make smart decisions under pressure.We talk through how Liz actually grew into the role, starting with her first powerlifting meet back in 2018 and the moment she got obsessed with the why behind strength training. Her background as a teacher shaped the way she programs and coaches: clear progression, strong fundamentals, and the patience to fix one or two key things instead of trying to overhaul everything at once. If you're a lifter, you'll hear how great cues stay simple. If you're a coach, you'll hear why working with the general population can build a deeper toolbox for squat, bench, and deadlift success.Then we get into the tough part: meet day. Attempt selection and weight calls can feel brutal when the stakes are real, the clock is running, and you're responsible for the outcome. Liz shares how she went from avoiding platform decisions to confidently picking jumps, reading speed, and helping athletes squeeze the biggest total possible on that day, plus how experience and better anxiety management changed her decision-making.We also share a team update: Coach Kadrin is joining the Fortis Powerlifting coaching roster, expanding what we can offer lifters who want serious powerlifting coaching and meet prep support.

It includes detailed discussions on program adjustments, exercise selection, and weekly training schedules for optimal performance and injury prevention. The conversation delves into the design of athletic training programs, specifically focusing on powerlifting and Jiu-Jitsu. It explores the structure, exercises, and considerations for each program, providing valuable insights into program design for athletic training.TakeawaysProgram adjustments for lifestyle clients include reducing volume and adding more accessory work.Considerations for marathon training include minimizing stress on the quads and knees and incorporating low-level plyometrics.A weekly training schedule for runners should include strategic rest days and upper body training after long runs. Athletic training program design requires careful consideration of exercise selection, volume, and rest periods.Powerlifting programs should prioritize main movements like bench press, back squat, and deadlift, with a focus on percentages and rest periods.Jiu-Jitsu training programs should address isometric strength, range of motion, and specific movements to support the demands of the sport.Chapters00:00 Introduction and Catching Up08:06 Marathon Training Program17:02 Training Adjustments and Recommendations25:42 Weekly Training Schedule43:01 Jiu-Jitsu Training and Program Design

In this episode the guys break down why almost everyone should do at least one cycle of powerlifting-style training, regardless of your goal. They cover why the squat, bench press and deadlift are the most underrated tools for building a great physique, how strength is the only objective metric that tells you everything is going right, why powerlifting programing beats bodybuilding programing for most people, and how focusing on strength is one of the best tools for getting people out of body dysmorphia. They also get into Brian Johnson's perfect 100 sleep score streak on Eight Sleep and his girlfriend's vaginal microbiome flex, the four reported species of aliens now being covered by mainstream news, Justin's son qualifying for nationals in gymnastics, and the AP x Swatch collab that caused global pandemonium. Then they answer questions submitted through Instagram — covering MAPS phase adaptation, lighter weight training strategies, combining running and strength training, and the best rep range for one set to failure.

When Should You Compete Again? Timing Meets, Momentum, and Realistic Goals in Strength & Physique Sports In this Iron Radio episode, hosts Coach Phil Stevens, Dr. Mike T. Nelson, and Dr. Lonnie Lowery discuss how athletes decide what to do next after a meet or show and when to compete again. Phil explains how competition frequency often shifts from many meets per year early on to fewer events as lifters get stronger, older, and need more time to recover and make meaningful progress, sometimes using smaller meets as non-max “training day” run-throughs for clients. Mike describes prioritizing goals to avoid competitions that distract from main objectives, and notes the added challenges in physique sports where frequent shows can create a stressful 6–12 week “gray area” and lead to issues like water retention and inflammation, especially for natural athletes. They emphasize realistic expectations, honest coaching, and the value of outside perspective for planning and psychology. 00:00 Welcome and Hosts 01:18 When to Compete Again 02:07 Phil on Meet Frequency 03:51 Clients and Progress Planning 06:13 Warmup Meets Strategy 07:49 Powerlifting vs Physique Peaks 08:50 Mike on Priorities and Goals 10:51 Physique Sports Gray Zone 16:40 Iron Radio Feed Update 17:52 Mike Nelson Newsletter 18:30 New Supplement Book 19:39 Levrone Transformation Talk 20:16 Setting Realistic PR Goals 21:26 Getting Athletes To Eat 24:03 Dreams Versus Reality 24:33 Choosing Your Strengths 27:50 Managing Warrior Mode 30:41 Why Coaches Matter 32:35 Wrap Up And Disclaimer Donate to the show via PayPal HERE.You can also join Dr Mike's Insider Newsletter for more info on how to add muscle, improve your performance and body comp - all without destroying your health, go to www.ironradiodrmike.com Thank you!Phil, Jerrell, Mike T, and Lonnie
Send us Fan Mail We just got back from PLU Nationals in San Antonio, and we're breaking down how we brought a full Fortis Powerlifting crew to a national stage.We talk through why we picked this meet in the first place: location, qualifying totals, and a condensed two-day format that keeps the competition feeling like a competition instead of a week-long convention. Then we get into the details that lifters and coaches actually care about, like weigh-in flow, warm-up room logistics, and how to handle timing, rack heights, and weight calls when two platforms start drifting out of sync. If you've ever felt overwhelmed on meet day, this is the behind-the-scenes playbook.From there, it's all about the lifters. We highlight PRs, state records, national records, national champions, and multiple 1,000-pound totals from our Fortis ladies, plus the moments that didn't go to plan and what we learned anyway. We also share the mindset piece: when to push, when to chip, when to retake, and how to keep the long game in view even when one lift goes sideways.If you want to qualify for nationals next year, we also lay out the simplest next step: look up the qualifying totals, pick a target, and start training with a real timeline.

Send us Fan MailWe are sad to report that Greg Page has passed away today, 5/13. This episode was recorded prior to finding out about Greg's passing. In this episode, Josh and Lara discussed several powerlifting-related topics. They covered the selection process for the U.S.A. Powerlifting team for IDFPA Worlds, with Josh advocating for alternates to be selected based on DOTS points rather than just the next best total in each weight class. They also talked about upcoming coach certification courses, with deadlines of May 14th for both the online Club Coach certification and the in-person National Coach Certification. Josh provided an update on the Minnesota lawsuit settlement involving transgender athlete J.C. Cooper, though specific details about the settlement were limited. Josh and Lara reminded listeners about an ongoing call for submissions of uplifting songs, with a May 16th deadline.

Elite cyclist, multisport athlete, and endurance coach Jenny Smith has spent decades pushing her limits — including multiple Leadville 100 podiums — but perimenopause and a meniscus tear brought unexpected mental and physical health challenges…and solutions. Ultimately, she found help through traditional medical interventions, picked up weights and got stronger than she's been in years, and discovered Angelic Reiki, which gave her peace, calm, and a deeper connection to herself. This week we unpack her perimenopause journey, the symptoms she didn't see coming, the relief strategies that actually worked, and why aging doesn't have to mean stepping back from the sports and the life you love.Jenny Smith is an elite cyclist, multisport athlete, and endurance coach with Aim High Performance Coaching—a company she co-founded with her husband, Brian Smith.A New Zealander, Jenny has called Gunnison, CO, home since 1999. She arrived as a collegiate runner at Western Colorado University and has been fortunate to live here as a pro mountain biker and elite athlete with Brian and their daughter, Jade. She coaches with youth and collegiate athletes and provides personalized coaching for endurance athletes. Jenny aims to be an active role model, athlete, and coach for many years to come.

Life isn't about perfect programming or elite-level training. It's about building a sustainable approach that allows you to improve, stay consistent, and actually enjoy the process. We also highlight the role of fun, challenge, and camaraderie—because for most people, that's the missing piece. Training doesn't have to feel like a chore. When done right, it becomes something you look forward to. If you've been thinking about signing up for an event, or just want to train in a way that builds both strength and endurance without sacrificing your lifestyle, this episode will give you the perspective you need. Because the goal isn't just to finish the race— it's to build a lifestyle you can sustain long after it's over.
