This conversation is from my appearance on Andrew Romeo’s podcast, Romeo Athletics Radio.

One of my long-time training coaches, Andrew invited me on to talk all things evidence-based fitness and flexible dieting. We discussed the intricacies of nutrition and fat loss, how to optimize your lifestyle for the best body composition, and my thoughts on tracking, what foods to eat, what to focus on first, and so much more. 

Enjoy my conversation with Andrew Romeo!

We unravel the secrets to striking the perfect balance in your physique. From the fervor of CrossFit to the meticulous craft of bodybuilding, I've navigated through my own fitness evolution and emerged with a trove of evidence-based nutrition truths to share. This episode isn't just about packing on muscle; it's about doing so with precision, debunking industry myths, and understanding the critical interplay between muscle gain, fat loss, and the power of a consistent, well-structured diet.
