In this episode of The Gap, Brett sits down with Trey Wooster for a real, unfiltered conversation on what it actually takes to build a high-level physique, business, and mindset in today’s world.

They dive deep into the balance between training, content creation, and life outside of both—breaking down how to avoid burnout, stay productive, and make decisions that actually move your life forward. Brett shares how shifting away from using training as an “escape” allowed him to level up in business, while Trey explains his approach to limiting distractions and staying locked in mentally.

The conversation transitions into training philosophy, where they unpack the importance of high vs. low intensity work, why “middle ground” training kills progress, and what it really means to train like an athlete—not just look like one. They also explore the concept of living like an athlete, emphasizing sleep, nutrition, and intellectual growth as the true high-ROI habits.

Trey shares his journey through the fitness industry, including his experience with social media, interning in performance facilities, and navigating imposter syndrome while building his brand.
