  • Maybe the Best

    The 2 Erics are among if not the best at at making what could be extremely boring, tediously nuanced things digestible and entertaining. Trex’s dry humor is sneaky good and Helms can pretty much explain anything and even a dumb guy like me understands. … I listen to probably 4-5hours of podcasts a day, I think this is the only review I’ve written

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Ep 360 - WNBF Champs Eddie Saldana and Max Melchard
Q: So Max, what does the future hold? Are we taking an off-season? Are you getting back on stage? Or what's going on for the future for Max, the bodybuilder?
I will definitely take an off-season. I know that I can improve the way I did within the last three years, because I made the newbie gains of someone who's coming from all different kinds of sports, now focusing on bodybuilding.
Ep 360 - WNBF Champs Eddie Saldana and Max Melchard
Q: Max, tell me about the bodybuilding culture in Austria and Germany, and especially the natural bodybuilding culture, because it seems like it's very, very strong and people get into it at a young age.
I think the reason why many European athletes bring their certain looks is because many athletes choose to do a prep with a coach and as the European culture and judges prefer conditioned looks.
Ep 360 - WNBF Champs Eddie Saldana and Max Melchard
Q: Eddie, let's start with you. I'd love to hear about how you got into training, how long you've been training, and then your entrance into competitive bodybuilding, and how that led you to this moment where you actually came away as the world champion.
My first introduction to training goes back quite, I must have been about 13 years old. There was something about being jacked, just like big arms that fascinated me.
Ep 357 - WNBF Champs Heitor Sousa and Adão Martins
Q: How do you recover after a competition and prepare for the next season?
Recovery usually takes about two months, during which I gain a few kilos of weight before starting prep again.
Ep 357 - WNBF Champs Heitor Sousa and Adão Martins
Q: What enables you to successfully compete and improve on an annual basis?
The key to our success has been maintaining the right weight and not bulking too much, which allows us to have effective workouts throughout the year.
