Men’s Health Strong Talk

The U.S. military is rolling out a new testosterone screening program for soldiers—but is it the right move? In this episode of Strong Talk, Men's Health fitness Director Ebenezer Samuel sits down with exercise scientist Dr. Pat Davidson to break down what testosterone actually does, why one blood test doesn't tell the whole story, and whether TRT is being viewed as a shortcut to better performance.

When you’re the trainer behind Dwayne Johnson, you’ve probably learned a thing or two about building a body that actually performs. On this episode of Strong Talk, pro bodybuilder and strength and conditioning coach Dave Rienzi—who's worked with stars like The Rock and Henry Cavill—reveals the secrets to body recomposition.  You'll get the truth about building muscle, losing fat, and why most people get the process completely wrong. No shortcuts, no fantasy, just what actually works.
