In this podcast, I interview Luke, who read my book Bigger Leaner Stronger and did 6 months of Legion’s VIP one-on-one coaching program to finally dial in his training and nutrition, improve his body composition, and get leaner and stronger than ever before. And the best part is he did it while spending less time in the gym, simplifying his fitness regimen, and learning to love the lifestyle. Now, he not only enjoys his training, but looks forward to it every day. Enjoyment is the secret to consistency, which will help Luke continue to make progress and maintain his physique for the rest of his life.
Before finding my work, Luke had a “skinny fat” look and spent 2 or 3 hours in the gym per day. But through educating himself with my book and following the program of his coach, Nick, he was able to get down to 8% body fat, and get stronger than he’s ever been. In this interview, Luke and I chat about . . .
- How he cut his training time in half while drastically increasing his strength
- His cardio routine (even though he doesn’t like cardio)
- The importance of learning to rest more between sets
- How he adjusted his training to navigate lagging muscle groups and joint tightness and injuries
- How he learned about nutrition and how he adjusted to eating appropriately sized portions and meals
- How he learned to love the fitness lifestyle and look forward to his training
- And more . . .
So if you’re looking for a jolt of inspiration and like motivational stories, definitely listen to this episode.
