Becoming Unf*@kwithable

I speak with South African Strongman Samuel Frauenstein about sinking deep, real deep to the level of training required in his journey to compete in Africa's Strongest Man. Overcoming setbacks that would permanently bench a lot of people out there, and the tough times as the CEO of Phoenix Films where trusting yourself and the progress is key to long term success. If you thought your training was brutal, you might not think so after hearing what Sam has gone through.

Natasha and I attended the same High School back in Dauphin Manitoba, and since then we've had these serendipitous run ins in complete different cities. If it wasn't for Natasha reaching out to me about trying Ayahuasca to help heal my PTSD after the death of my first husband things might have been different for me. So I am forever grateful for that. Since then I've been intrigued with her work, and as a firm believer in Cannabis I wanted to learn more so here we are on Episode 5! I hope you enjoy!

Was great having Scott Welch on the show. We covered everything from the future of the sports supplement industry, changes in the fitness media as we know it, and the most important lesson he learned from Musclemag Founder Bob Kennedy. Plus I get his opinion on how industry giants like Amazon.com will affect the supplement industry as we know it.

It's not every day you get to have a chat with a record holding professional. Especially when it's 9X Arnold Classic Champ and '08 Mr.Olympia Dexter Jackson. Dexter opens up about facing some of the tough setbacks and how he used them to come back stronger, what he's learned from his mentor, and his WHY. I also get his thoughts on Social Media, and WOW shots fired on this one! There are tons of valuable lessons in here that no matter what your age, I hope you listen closely and take notes!

It was great catching up with Darren Mehling CEO of Freak Fitness. Darren is one of the top competition prep coaches in the world, and I got to talk to him about what it takes to become the best in the fitness industry, his mindset and what it's taken to grow his Freak Fitness Family to the industry behemoth it's become. Hope you guys enjoy it and walk away with a lot of valuable insight.

There's a lot of misinformation in the ever evolving world of bodybuilding. From the delicate hormones of women and gender specific training to the so-called "safer than steroids" SARMs. It's become increasingly harder to find good solid research in a sea of one sided forums and outdated articles. Victoria sets out to fight the good fight with her research and role as Instructor, Internationally Renowned Junior Scholar, Academic and Fitness Consultant and Contributing Writer for Muscle Insider Magazine.
