Author: Mark Bell's Power Project August 22, 2022 Duration: 1:28:22

[Re-upload for Spotify] In this Podcast Episode, Mark Bell, Nsima Inyang, and Andrew Zaragoza talk about whether or not the deadlift and squat are worth doing. Former guest, Kevin Bass, has been putting out information on why the deadlift and squat are not good movements for general public which has received tons of backlash, but as we learn on today's show, Keven keeps all the receipts.

You’re stepping into the gym with Mark Bell’s Power Project, a conversation built around iron and the mindset it takes to move it. Mark Bell isn’t just a host; he’s an inventor and record-holding powerlifter who approaches training with a blend of innovation and hard-earned experience. Alongside co-hosts Nsima Inyang and Andrew Zaragoza, this podcast feels like a candid locker room talk where no topic is off the table. The discussions naturally flow from the technical specifics of powerlifting and practical nutrition advice to broader themes of personal motivation and life coaching. It’s this mix that gives the show its depth-you’ll hear about refining your squat one moment and navigating mental barriers the next. The underlying drive for every episode is Mark’s personal mission to make the world a better place to lift, which translates into actionable insights whether you’re a seasoned competitor or someone just starting their fitness journey. Tune in for a raw, often humorous, and always genuine look at building strength in every sense of the word. This isn’t about quick fixes; it’s about the long-term project of building a stronger you.
