There are many myths that have been perpetuated about resistance training over the years including but not limited to:

-Lifting makes you bulky

-Lift light weights to be 'toned'

-Lifting stunts your growth

-Lifting makes you 'muscle bound'

In this episode, Layne talks with Sal Di Stefano from Mind Pump. Sal began his fitness journey of lifting weights as a teenager and became a personal trainer at 18 years of age, then was promoted to general manager of a large gym by age 19, and started his own business at 22 by opening his own personal training studio. A veteran of 'in the trenches' hands-on personal training, Sal brings a practical element of resistance training knowledge with an ability to distill complex topics into engaging content.

Layne and Sal rap about the many benefits of resistance training, the myths about it, and why almost everyone should be resistance training in some form.
