That's right. And this is, this is one thing that we aim to do. as we try to get in there and kind of figure it out like a great one. We just did an episode recently on hip thrust versus squats. And the studies show that they both build the glutes the same, but so much anecdote from people, uh, online saying that hip thrust build their butts more. Well, that's because the self-selection bias, uh,
that we're dealing with are people who have trouble building their butts doing squats. And in that case, a hip thrust, which allows you to feel your glutes more, it's easier to feel your glutes on a hip thrust than it is a squat. For those people, it is more effective, but they're not going to show that in those studies. So true.

Speaking of studies and human behaviors, like you brought up, Adam, interesting side effect from Element, our partners with the electrolyte powder. Do you know what I'm finding? So first off, we did a poll for all of our listeners and it got first place. It was the most... Most frequently used.

Of all the partners we work with, it was the number one most used product among all our partners. By quite a bit, yeah. But here's what I found. There's an interesting side effect or behavior change I'm noticing with people who consume a lot of element. Because my whole family does it. My wife drinks it or whatever. It makes people drink more water. And it's because it's palatable. It tastes good.

Because it tastes good. Now, it doesn't have sugar. It doesn't have artificial sweeteners. It's the sodium combined with the stevia in there. That gives you that kind of palatability. My wife drinks a lot more water when there's element. My kids drink more water if I add a little sprinkle of it to their water. So it's like, as a coach, you might notice my clients drink more water.

They're more hydrated. Yeah, because it's got- Because they're using all of it.

I've narrowed down, Adam, like the best. We've talked about this before, but now I have it down to like a number of the best pumps I'll get in the gym, because I work out in the morning and I don't eat till after, I eat when I get here. I'll do a packet element in this big container right here, which is I think 42 ounces. So I get up in the morning, I do my thing upstairs, and then I come down.

My workout's typically around 7.15, 7.20 in the morning. 6 a.m., I drink a whole one of these with one packet element. If I do that, the pumps are ridiculous.
