Being the very first Asian to appear on the cover of Muscle & Fitness, IFBB Pro Stan "The Man" McQuay burst on the fitness scene merely from getting discovered in the crowd at a bodybuilding event. Stan gets super candid in detailing his very first time using PEDs, what we see on the bodybuilding stage might not be "real", how he managed to stay in photo shoot shape during his Vegas partying days and inside stories we've never heard while he was training Dr. Dre and GSP! He also shares what it was like growing up as a painfully shy kid with a strong Asian influence in SoCal, to stepping on stage in his banana hammock in front of thousands internationally! Stan endures a hilarious round of "Never Have I Ever" to finish things off!

Who said, "Violence isn't the answer"? Whoever said that sure doesn't know Anthony "Lionheart" Smith where fighting saved him from getting beat up in his youth and carved his career as a professional MMA fighter. Anthony shares his stories starting from the ground up when professional fighting was unrefined and viewed as savage-like and tells us what his take on it now and what he misses about those "old" days, how his screen presence got him a spot as an ESPN analyst and what he was doing prior to our interview that he was almost late! You'll want to stick around for a round of "Anthony Smith: Fact or Fiction" for some previously unknown facts about him.

Former US Marine Corps Lance Corporal and IFBB Figure Pro Taylor Spadaccino joins us today and talks about what got her into rehab in high school, the reasons why she joined the US Marine Corps, and how long her journey took to attain IFBB Pro Figure status. She also shares a harrowing story of escaping an attack by the Taliban that earned her a Certificate of Commendation, and we shift the conversation to lighter topics such as the oddest things requested in her DMs and her theory on why a lot of females go provocative after they leave the service!

"Don't I know you from somewhere?" is what you may ask Tim Connolly if you run into him. As a matter of fact, you probably "do" know him from somewhere...that somewhere is in The Matrix, John Wick, and as Gerard Butler's stunt double in the movie 300. Tim shares how getting beat up by a bunch of thugs as a kid changed the trajectory of his life path, fun, and factual stories while stunt doubling for Gerard Butler and the intense training and dieting to get themselves ready for that iconic movie, plus working closely with Keanu Reeves and stories that will make us fall in love with Keanu even more than we already do!

Fitness trainer and influencer extraordinaire Whitney Johns shares her candid stories of the climb to being a top trainer to the masses and her own personal experiences as to why she became so involved in helping others achieve their fitness goals. Her experiences in the fitness competition world helped shift her focus on gut health to help her clients and how being on stage as a competitor went against her upbringing as a Mormon. She also shares what it was like growing up and leaving the Mormon community and making the move to LA. We finish things off on a fun note with a round of "Never Have I Ever" and some backstories!
