On this episode I interview Dr. Richard Brown III (Doc). Doc has been training bodybuilders from all around the world to be champions and also those just looking to get in the best shape of their lives for over 40 years. I was lucky enough to have him as my trainer for many years when I was a young aspiring bodybuilder.

Doc offers a unique perspective on life and training.

Enjoy, and get ready for ANIMAL DAY!!!
