In this powerful podcast episode, we take a deep dive into It's a Matter of Trust: Confessions of a Recovering Bodybuilder by Skip La Cour. More than just a story of muscle and discipline, this book peels back the layers of a man who reached the pinnacle of bodybuilding success—only to discover that the real work had just begun. We explore La Cour’s honest reflections on obsession, emotional isolation, inner emptiness behind outer achievements, and the myth that discipline in one domain guarantees fulfillment in others. Through vulnerability, he shares how he turned his pain into purpose, his obsession into legacy, and his coaching into a mission to help other men "come home to themselves." This is a must-listen for anyone who has ever questioned if their version of success is truly aligned with who they are.

The Wake-Up Call

"If you don’t choose your addiction, it will choose you."
Skip La Cour didn’t write another fitness guide. He wrote a memoir forged in pain, obsession, transformation—and love. From bodybuilding to fatherhood, he lays out the real path to greatness… and the cost. Every man needs to hear this story.

You say you want to lose the gut. Get strong. Feel good again.

But commitment isn’t what you say at 10 p.m. after watching a fitness reel.

It’s what you do at 5 a.m. when the bed is warm and your old habits whisper, “Skip it today.”

Commitment Is the Missing Link Between Your Goals and Your Results
