About this episode

Jesse and Ben Barker discuss practical fitness and family advice, addressing common questions from parents and lifters.

Jesse and Ben Barker are back for an Ask Us Anything, tackling the real-life questions busy parents and lifters are actually asking: how much screen time to allow your kids (now that even the government is warning about it), how to unwind at night without reaching for a drink, how to finally lose the stubborn lower-belly pooch that won't budge, whether the Presidential Fitness Test's return means you should train your kids, the best way to actually track your lifts, how to keep running without wrecking your knees, and the honest truth about intermittent fasting. Two dads, no script, straight answers.
