On todays episode I speak with Autumm Greene who is a fierce competitor in the 75kg class. Autumm broke the 75kg squat record at this past Arnolds in March and as we are just over 1 week away from Mega nationals she is training hard to put up her best performance to date. We dive into what it is like to work with "The Oracle" Steve DeNovi, adjustments they made during this prep to help her deadlift, and how going through the hard times of caring for her young son while he battles a rare disease has pushed her to only train harder.

This episode was a blast and I hope you enjoy it.
