048: How to Optimize Your Exercise & Nutrition Regiment with Brock Waluk


Listen Later

I met Brock around 2012 at the very beginning of my bodybuilding years. I've known him as a humble yet well-informed trainer who is constantly keeping himself up to date with his knowledge in the industry. 

Having witnessed his own personal transformation in mind, body, and soul over the years, Brock focuses on true personal development, hard work, and building a long-lasting community within his business. It has grown so much that he now has several amazing employees who have the same level of energy and commitment that he has.

Today, Brock talks about the power of training for longevity. That being said, you also need to be able to hold space for people so you can relate to them and for transformation to happen not only on a physical level, but also, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually.

One of the takeaways Brock shares in this interview is that action precedes motivation. If you're waiting for motivation, it might never come. And so, you need to do the thing first. Then once you do it, you actually feel more motivated to do the thing again and again. You just have to take that first step.

More About Brock

Brock developed a passion for bodybuilding and helping people reach their health and nutrition goals. He learned that each person is unique and has individual needs when it comes to training and nutrition and that a personal training routine cannot be cookie-cutter to be effective.
