Welcome to episode 100 of the Longevity Muscle podcast! To celebrate episode 100 it only made sense to bring on the man who helped kick start the podcast (dating back to episode 1) Jeff Alberts from 3D Muscle Journey! Jeff is a Pro Natural Bodybuilder who fell in love with lifting back in 1986. He entered his first competition in 1993 and over the span of 3 decades he's competed in numerous shows. His track record speaks for itself winning 2 pro cards, 16 class titles, 26 top 3 finishes, and winning the 2014 IFPA Pro International. As a coach with 3DMJ, Jeff has worked with over 400+ athletes since 3DMJ’s inception, assisting them to reach a higher level.
