Today I’m joined by a Personal Trainer and coach from Sydney that I’m very excited to get his very evidence based approach to health and fitness. Brendon Edwards is A bodybuilding competitor, a Powerlifting competitor, and more importantly to me a Trainer that has worked in the big box gyms and has worked with real world humans. People from all walks of life walk through those gym doors and it falls on the trainers and coaches of these gyms to develop strategies for a vast population, and it’s important that when you are doing this you look at the evidence based approaches and build your foundation on what’s been proven to work, and then based on the outcomes of the individual you decide what to do, and that is exactly what I want to talk to you about today welcome Brendon!

Now it’s important when you are gathering information, you are getting it from credible sources. You can get information from a PHD or someone very up To date with the literature, but sometimes that leads to answers that don’t really fit in with day to day life and isn’t really applicable. You can also listen to the practitioners, the coaches, the people in the trenches but what happens to us is we get so caught up taking the sessions and applying our already obtained knowledge, that it’s hard to find time to keep upskilling and learn more so you get very stuck in the way you think and apply. Then we have those select few who love the science, love the data and then have the passion to apply it to real people to achieve god-like results for themselves and the people they work with. Brandon Kempter is a Comp Prep Specialist, Winning the ICN Worlds Bodybuilding Overall, which is in my opinion one of the greatest achievements in Australian Natural Bodybuilding history. 8 years in the fitness industry, creating 100’s of physiques that go against nature with his signature “BK Conditioning”. Today, I’m going to talk about competition, immune function, the science behind home training and what it takes to become a pro from someone that actually started on a farm with very limited equipment and was able to start his journey to where he is today so welcome to the podcast Brandon Kempter!

Which a lot of people of people I have worked with suffer with specifically so this is going to be a great way to help them now. Cupping, Needling, Trigger Point and even IASTM which I received which this scraping technique which I want to go through with you later but I’m super honoured to have someone who can shed some light on what people should be focusing on when things are changing so rapidly. Welcome to the podcast Danny!

Today’s morning walk I’m joined with someone I consider to be someone who is creating what I would consider to be the golden standard in coaching in Australia. The amount of content that is pumped through their JPS machine is incredible from courses that you at home and anyone just interested in Fitness can get into and start the journey into smart exercise. Samuel Schepis is the co-founder of JPS Health and Fitness in Airport West & South Melbourne and is a competitor in Bodybuilding & Powerlifting, holding an Australian Powerlifting U77kg National Championship and a record squat of 255kg Under 77kg & a total of 697.5kg. 

He also handles up to 50 of his own clients online and 1-on-1 from competitive athletes to general health and fitness. I'm taking advantage of someone who has had a lot of exposure to some of the best coaches in the world like Eric Helms, Jeff Nippard, Brad Schoenfeld, Eric Trexler, which are some of the best researchers on everything health and fitness and today I’m walking with someone who gets to apply all of that knowledge in the real world and I’m excited to bring everyone here some amazing value on how to look and feel your absolute greatest welcome Samuel!

What a beautiful morning, welcome to another epic side of walk with Karl and today is another special guest, I’m so grateful that I’m getting such great people interested in sharing their story and today is no other. So many knowledge bombs on gaining muscle, the difference between contest prep & fat loss, How to set your goals for training during this time, I can’t believe how raw this talk was. I watched this man like a hawk all through out my last contest season, because we actually were in the same show. He was one of the benchmarks. Someone who has taken the time & money to invest in himself, and in other amazing coaches in the industry, not to mention the amount of time dedicated to getting strong, trusting the process for years on end to bring an amazing result. I would like to welcome the CEO & Founder of Precision Performance Coching, Coach Munya!
