In this hilarious and informative episode of The Next Level Health & Fitness Podcast (formerly The Key Nutrition Podcast), cohost Craig Smith and I take a trip down memory lane to revisit all the ridiculous things we used to believe and do in the name of health and fitness. From waking up in the middle of the night to slam a protein shake to believing in the mythical anabolic window, we share our missteps, lessons learned, and some good laughs along the way. Other highlights include: The infamous velocity diet. Avoiding carbs at night because "science." Overcomplicating the simple stuff. Believing the more supplements, the better. We share these stories not just to entertain, but to help you avoid the same traps we fell into. If you're looking to simplify your health and fitness journey while having a good laugh, this is the episode for you. 👉 Join the waitlist for the next round of our transformative Next Level Experience!
