In this episode we find out that Miss Bikini Angelica Teixeira is actually a “Misses” and if being an all-round nice person had a title, she would be the “Miss” of that too ! Angelica is living proof that starting from the bottom and overcoming obstacles without giving up, truley pays off. She had to overcome language barriers, competition rules that slowed her progress and a marathon of competitions all over the USA to earn the right to turn professional, but once she did there was no turning back or slowing down ! Today Angelica is the queen of the bikini category preparing to defend her title but remains as humble as she was during the tough times. That is why Angelica is a true ambassador of the sport and a role model to all women and men too!

In Part 2, Phil Heath brushes on being presented the Mr O title by The Rock, what went down behind the scenes during the recording of Generation Iron and some current and future projects in the works…and more !

Around the birthtime of social media, the reign of Phil Heath began and played out under the watchful eye of the cyber theatre of millions of followers worldwide! Something that no other current Mr Olympia experienced for 7 consecutive seasons in a period when anyone from anywhere in the world has a voice to use without rules; a lot of them unaware of their impact .
One sure thing is Phil’s achievements, equalling the great Arnold Schwarzenegger with 7 Mr Olympia wins and about to enter “legacy status” walking the path where only two other men have ever been before and that’s a 8th title.

Phil doesn’t hide his goals towards success but doesn’t always disclose the good, success has enabled him to do!

Hear part 1 of the conversation with Phil and get to know the hidden path of champions!

In this episode NZ BOSS discusses the highs and lows of turning 40, and as usual DJ Big Wig offers very little useful information to assist in joining the 40 club! The guys touch on the year ahead, updates on previous guests and will NZ BOSS be going through a mid-life crisis and compete again or hang up the posing leopard skin trunks?

SPECIAL EXTRA: We go back in time and hear who NZ BOSS is, where he came from and how he ended up being the NZ BOSS compliments of a previous interview on the Chris Em’s podcast “School of Struggle”.

Question: How do you become the king of the throne in a time when there was no social media, internet was “on the way”, magazines were only published once a month ( if you made the cover !) and no one remembered second-best?

Jay Cutler has the answers; from breaking into the scene during that period, to the journey to the top without any hand-outs or easy shortcuts. Jay is now retired from competitive bodybuilding but remains relevant in the new cyber age sticking to the same fundamentals that worked back then !
