When to Make Changes to Your Training w/ Anders Varner, Doug Larson, and Travis Mash #810

The crew breaks down how to know when it's time to pivot your training. From bodybuilding and Olympic lifting to CrossFit, strongman, and martial arts, they share what decades under the bar have taught them about adapting for longevity, avoiding injury, and keeping fitness enjoyable.

In this episode, you will learn:

  • How to recognize when your training is no longer serving you

  • Safer alternatives to Olympic lifts for maintaining speed and power

  • Why jiu-jitsu has become the go-to sport for retired strength athletes

  • How strongman-style training and outdoor labor can replace conventional workouts

  • The role of play, community, and nature in sustaining lifelong fitness
