Merry Christmas and welcome to this special Boxing Day Mailbag where the Fit Dads will open their sacks of banter. Ryan & Brad bust some myth, share some bizarre "would-you-rathers" but don't worry, underneath the nonsense, there is real value.....

We open up the listener's mailbag to answer hard hitting listener questions on fasting, supplements, hydration, raining volume vs intensity, advice for young coaches and how to balance looking good with actually performing well.

If you want an episode that feels like sitting on the sofa with mates, laughing one minute and learning something useful the next, this one's for you.
