In this week’s unfiltered, unapologetic, and unexpectedly insightful episode of Off The Strength , hosts Tony Vidal and KR Jones take you on a wild ride through the world of health, wellness, and questionable life choices —all while engaging their cores and holding onto the rails of reason (because train-surfing is, apparently, a thing). ✨ Topics on Tap (or Should We Say, “Off Tap”?) ✨ 🚫 Dry January or Just Dry Heaving? We break down the Hard Ketones craze, the alt-bev trial era , and why 25% of U.S. adults are voluntarily choosing hydration over hangovers. (The other 75%? Still in denial.) 💤 Slacking On Your Napping? The science is in— bad sleep is ruining your metabolism , messing with your gains, and quite possibly giving you the kind of carcinogenic vibes you didn’t sign up for. Bedtime rituals are now officially cooler than bottle service. 💪 Gym Shark’s Modesty Line: Because Clothes Are Optional, Apparently. The inverse correlation between gym price and gym attire —the more you pay, the less you wear —proves that luxury fitness might just be a high-end nudist colony with protein shakes. 🏃‍♂️ Are Americans Doing Fitness Wrong? According to The New York Times , yes —and based on the Hoka-wearing, corner-store-running culture of the UK , we might actually agree. 💉 Ketamine Therapy for Depression? Big Pharma’s favorite pivot : Johnson & Johnson is now out here treating severe clinical depression with horse tranquilizers , proving that self-care is just science with better branding. ⚽ Disco Foot is the New Soccer Movement? You mean to tell us we’ve been plyometrically training all wrong , and all it took was adding a strobe light and some questionable footwork ? 📖 Revisiting Your Old Work to Make Progress – Why growth sometimes means cringing at your past self and embracing your evolution ( yes, even that phase when you thought meal prepping was your entire personality ). 🏈 Don Julio x The Popeyes x The Super Bowl – Because nothing says “touchdown” quite like a tequila-powered halftime sermon. 💀 Cosmetic Death from Surgery – At what point does "snatched" turn into "snatched from existence"? 🔄 Embrace The Pivot. Affirm Your Authenticity. Sometimes, life throws you off course—whether it's your fitness routine, career path, or attempt at train-surfing ( again, please don’t ). But at the end of the day, the real flex is adaptation. 🔥 Tune in, laugh, learn, and remember—wellness isn’t just about gains, it’s about game. 🔥 🔊 Listen now on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your dose of questionable advice and unfiltered health & wellness insights.
