Hosted by Michael Catherwood, a lifelong athlete and black belt who’s spent decades in pursuit of strength, discipline, and peace. Here, we go beyond reps and routines to talk about what really keeps us in the game — the habits, the mindset, and the meaning behind the work.

Who doesn't love some good, conclusive, scientific proof to back up what you've been saying for a while? That's exactly what I'm bringing you on today's Work in Progress. Less frequent, but very intense bouts of resistance training, mixed with a whole lot of low-level work, is the way to go!

I fully realize that this disease is complex and challenging to understand, but unfortunately, I think it's often misunderstood willfully. Addiction is never pretty, fun, or enjoyable to deal with, and this becomes hard when it is you or your loved one who needs treatment. I give you my thoughts, and I'd love your feedback.

There is demagoguery when it comes to selecting exercises. Some are more "Bad Ass" than others and some are more "Wussy" than others, but the truth is, it varies from person to person. I am happy to provide some clarity to this very unnecessarily controversial topic.
