About this episode
This week on Stronger Weekly, we’re pulling a classic episode from our vault. I’m joined by Eric Hinman — fitness entrepreneur, hybrid athlete, and five-time Ironman finisher — to talk training, recovery, and what life looks like after quitting alcohol. Eric shares how eliminating alcohol changed his energy, focus, and consistency, and how he’s built a performance-driven lifestyle that prioritizes discipline, community, and longevity. It’s a timely conversation as millions take part in Sober October to reset their health and habits. We also break down the biggest health and fitness headlines of the week: - New York City sues Meta, TikTok, and YouTube, alleging their platforms are addicting children and fueling a youth mental health crisis. - Doctors warn GLP-1 drugs like Ozempic and Wegovy may interfere with cancer imaging results, leading to misdiagnosis concerns. - A new global study finds women face nearly double the genetic risk for depression compared to men. - A major European study on diet drinks raises new questions about artificial sweeteners and long-term heart health. - Researchers in China find fathers who exercise before conception may pass on greater endurance to their children.
