Full Spectrum Fit
Most fitness advice lives in silos: strength people ignore mobility, runners skip the weight room, and everyone forgets about sleep.

- Hyrox's Packed Calendar Breaks PeriodizationCan you actually train for a Hyrox season that now runs almost year-round? Miles and Amara dig into the newly live 2026/27 calendar, a stacked North American schedule, and a rulebook overhaul that makes failing any station an automatic disqualification. Listeners will learn what the new station-completion and doubles-gap rules actually require, why racing every few weeks flips the injury-risk math for intermediate athletes, and how to pick two or three peak events instead of chasing every date on the schedule. It's a scheduling story that turns into a full periodization problem, which is exactly the kind of full-spectrum thinking this show exists for. New episode, out this Tuesday.
- Your Pasta Dinner Is 36 Hours LateMiles and Amara scrap the old seven-day depletion protocol and rebuild race-week fueling around 36 to 48 hour glycogen loading, 90 to 120 grams of carbs per hour, and a two-week gut-training block runners can start before Berlin.
- Achilles Barking in Peak WeekMiles and Amara dig into a new randomized trial pitting moderate-load against progressively heavy calf work for Achilles tendinopathy, then turn the dosing science into a return-to-running plan for runners six weeks out from Berlin, Chicago, or New York.
- When to Stop Lifting Before Your MarathonMiles and Amara map the final eight to ten weeks before Berlin, Chicago, and New York, covering when to pull back the barbell, how to protect the taper, and what Hyrox's bigger 2026/27 calendar means for race-stackers.

- Marathon Season Meets Leg DayMiles and Amara build a concurrent-training plan for lifters who just registered for a fall marathon or Hyrox race, covering sequencing, fueling, and how much strength you actually stand to lose.
- Hybrid Athlete or Hype at the CrossFit GamesMiles and Amara use the 20th CrossFit Games in San Jose as a live case study on the interference effect, asking whether elite hybrid athletes prove you really can build a heavy squat and a fast 5k at the same time.
- Is Jeff Nippard Natural? What FFMI Really ShowsMiles and Amara use the internet's favorite natty-or-not feud to break down FFMI math, the real gaps in natural bodybuilding drug testing, and what genetics can and cannot explain about elite physiques.
- The Ozempic Muscle Panic Gets a Plot TwistMiles and Amara dig into a new mouse study and a myostatin-blocking drug called apitegromab to ask whether GLP-1 muscle loss panic was overblown, then explain why lifters on these meds still can't skip leg day.
- Strength Training as MedicineA landmark 30-year Harvard study of 147,000 adults found a precise sweet spot for strength training and longevity. Miles and Amara dig into the numbers, debate what they mean for people already in the gym, and make the case for two solid lifting sessions a week being the most evidence-backed investment in a longer life.
- Sweat Science: Electrolytes for Summer TrainingMiles and Amara dig into the actual science of hydration for strength-focused athletes training through summer heat, covering why sodium is the electrolyte that matters most, how wildly sweat rates vary between individuals, the real danger of drinking too much plain water, and how to build a personalized protocol without expensive gear.

About
What the show is
Full Spectrum Fit covers all of it. Each week, two hosts break down one fitness topic across every dimension that matters: the training science, the recovery protocols, the nutrition angle, and the mental game. Built for active adults who already work out but suspect they're leaving performance on the table by neglecting the pieces that don't make it onto Instagram. If you can name your one-rep max but can't touch your toes, this show is for you.
