When you're working with actors and political pundits who NEED to shape dramatically transform their body fast, you learn how to optimize for body type. 

Paul Catudal's book "Just Your Type: The Ultimate Guide To Eating And Training For Your Body Type." Is a how-to guide for living your best life with the body you were born with.

But Phil is not just a wealth of knowledge for getting your body right, but his story is very inspiring. Phil is a childhood cancer survivor and lost his father to cancer when he was young. What's more, is that his brother also developed cancer which he later beat. 

This life experience shaped his life and his purpose. 

Now, Phil is a massive resource for hacking training and nutrition for the three body-types: Ectomorph, Mesomorph and Endomorph. 

In this episode we cover:

•Three body types we’re born into…goes even into our bone structure.

•How veganism, keto, paleo, IF, OMAD technically could work for all three, but it’s going to be much much harder if your body type isn’t aligned with it and your goals.

•The importance of finding the right dietary approach for you body type and lifestyle without becoming the friend that everyone hates because you’re constantly talking about food.

•How doing anything, the right way, for 2-3 weeks should show results, especially when it comes to eating and exercising correctly for your body types.

•Spend 2 weeks to count macros to establish a better awareness of what balanced macros looks like
