This is the last civil conversation Paul ever had

@gabrielnunes7407 2 years ago

Discussions we'll never be able to witness again 😂

Holy shit how did I miss my fav two fitness guys on a podcast together

@aznbryanc 6 years ago

Mike's eyebrows speak volumes about how he really feels inside

@nikolamanojlovicci 6 years ago

This is one of the best ones you've ever done. That's saying something given the incredibly high average quality.

@MikeLitoris4 6 years ago (edited)

can you please do part 2 on optimal amount of sets? that is where they both disagree

@The0ldeKnight 6 years ago

I wasn't aware Harry Potter had gotten into the exercise science world and now runs his own podcast. Awesome

@Oceanhenry 2 years ago

Bring paul back 👀😂 probably not a popular take lol, however I love discussions between opposing views

@Huffman_Tree 6 years ago

What a content drop on a cold saturday afternoon. Perfect!

@GagoGamesYT 6 years ago

I can't get enough of this podcasts lately, keep up the amazing work I'm learning so much from the guys you feature 💯

@VisionTruth01 6 years ago

Seriously dude you guys at revive stronger have awesome content. Woke up waiting for this. Trained a few clients check and what do we see. Made my day. 🤣🤣🤣

@Chaosdude341 6 years ago

I'd enjoy seeing these two on again. I like their chemistry. Great work, Steve!

@balintlosonci3578 3 years ago

Extremely important podcast, I learnt a lot, thanks. Now I got it clear, how genious is Steve Shaw's rep goal system or Scott Stevenson' s cluster sets are: they offer the competitiveness on the psychological side yet you still can focus more on good form. And of course, more effective reps as well.

@anthonydavid1965 6 years ago

Technique as a form of progression! Excellent stuff and probably not highlighted enough amongst the prevailing focus on rep numbers and load these days!
