Is there really a “best” training split? In this episode, Ben and Sawyer break down the most popular workout splits: bro splits, push-pull-legs, upper/lower, and full-body training, and explain how to choose the right one based on your goals, recovery, schedule, and lifestyle.

They share personal experiences, common mistakes lifters make when chasing “optimal,” and why flexibility, sustainability, and long-term planning matter more than any single program. Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced lifter, this episode will help you train smarter, not just harder.

In this episode, Alice and Giacomo take a deep dive into vegan protein powders: past, present, and future.

They break down the history of plant-based proteins, compare blends vs isolates, address common concerns around amino acid profiles, digestion, heavy metals, sweeteners, and cost, and explain why perfection isn’t necessary to meet protein goals.

The conversation also explores emerging yeast-based “vegan whey” proteins, flavoring strategies, baking and cooking applications, and how to choose a protein powder that fits your goals, budget, and preferences, without fear or misinformation.
