Cheyne and Luis talk further about what these stereotypes may be and where they come from and how to work not only with them but against them. Listen and share with everyone you know, they'll thank you.

Cheyne and Luis talk about Luis' on set experience on a huge set for a video and photo shoot for a major athletic name brand.

Cheyne and Luis discuss Luis' recent trip to the South, Nashville. After returning from Nashville, Luis suffers a small injury which leads to a bigger issue. He drops a weight on his toe which leads an ingrown toe nail, which leads to an infection. This experience is very humbling because something as small as an infected big toe nail can really slow you down both mentally and physically. When encountered with this situation you have to ask yourself the benefits or hazards of working out at the same level. Another factor, while recovering, do you change your nutrition? Also discussed in current events is the new female world record for deadlifting. Super impressive numbers by a super impressive athlete.

Happy birthday to Luis! Cheyne and Luis talk about the birthday weekend that Luis had and how awkward he felt during festivities. The reason why Luis felt awkward is because he's used to people showing up for him doing something, he's not used to people showing up for him just being. Luis has now lost the role that he's used to playing. Cheyne and Luis see this happen at the gym when people show up for a class expecting to blend in and not really be seen, but then no one else shows up but them, their expected role of blending in is now gone. What to do and how to deal with these life occurrences is talked about in this episode.

First of all apologies. Luis' microphone was not up to snuff and his audio sounds a bit low but it's still very audible. In this episode, Cheyne and Luis discuss the Winter Olympics. Yeah, that's happening now. Regardless of the fact that viewership is not that of the Summer Olympics the athletes participating in the Winter Olympics are still athletes. Yes, even the ones that participate in curling. These athletes have learned to tap into their genetic potential and use it towards their respective sport. Cheyne and Luis also talk about their friend and coworker Jafar who has the ability to just walk up to whatever heavy weight you are attempting to lift and just effortlessly lift it for a single rep. Fun times.

Cheyne and Luis discuss relative strength and the pitfalls of questioning your own strength.

Luis even admits to still comparing his ability to lift a certain amount of weight to others. Cheyne and Luis provide tips as to how you can combat this mentality.
