Description

This week on Fitness Stuff for Normal People, Marianna and Tony are switching things up with the very first SPLIT episode. First, they break down why the painkillers so many of us reach for after a tough workout—ibuprofen, Advil, Tylenol—might actually be stalling your progress and quietly adding long-term health risks. Then they move into the truth about THC and whether it’s really helping or hurting your goals to lose fat, build muscle, and get stronger. Two conversations, one episode, and plenty of takeaways for anyone chasing real results in the gym.
