from up north Edinburgh you're from Edinburgh yeah hence the thick Scottish accent yes do you have a thick Scottish accent that was sarcasm yeah yeah yeah so yeah there we go we've we've leveled out I'm a British accent you're an English accent yeah I should have a Scottish accent or a Scouse accent but here we are but you don't I don't know so I'm just one big disappointment so let's continue that theme

Okay, okay.

Can you do it?

Not right now, no, because I'm currently training for something else, but that's how training and fitness should operate, I believe.

Should someone be able to do that at all times?

Is that part of the parameters that you're working towards?

No, no, just you would need to be able to do both things at the same time.

So the simple answer is I haven't been able to not bench 110 for 10 since 2015.

So that's fine.

That's covered.

Can you bench 110 for 10?

Well, that's the beauty of the challenge.

And I mean, yeah, welcome to the party.

You're six years late because I've been doing this for a long time.

So 2020, 500 pound back squat on sub five minute mile in the same day for the exact same principles of far end of endurance, sorry, far end of strength balanced with far end of something opposing, which is essentially the premise of hybrid training in the first place.

So Alex Viarda wrote the book in 2014, if you've heard of it.

The Hybrid Athlete, the book is called.

Is it good?

It's a very good book.

So it's a methodology and it's sort of the whole reason that the phrase was coined as a methodology in the first place was to solve a very specific problem, which was how can you make progress in opposing athletic disciplines concurrently?
