The Importance of Discipline

After speaking in St. Louis at the fitness summit together and catching up it was so great to have Ali come on the show to talk about everything men’s health, testosterone, training, boners, and what it takes to get fit and healthy in every way as a man in 2023and beyond. 

Ali Gilbert is a fitness professional who specializes in men's health, helping men get jacked, optimizing testosterone, and conquering nutrition.
