About this episode
The episode features a discussion on the importance of conditioning versus heavy lifting in strength training, alongside insights from outfitter Justin Jones on hunting and preparation.
In Episode 98 of The Okay Podcast, Grant Broggi, Jeff Buege, and Tres Gottlich sit down with outfitter Justin Jones to break down one of the biggest debates in strength training: Is lifting heavy enough — or do you need conditioning to perform in the real world?
