Iron Asylum Podcast

By IFBB Professional Athlete Sam Pearce

The world of professional body building is surrounded by myths and urban legends which conjure up a less than friendly profile for the sport and those that immerse themselves in it on a daily basis. IFBB Professional Athlete, Sam Pearce, talks to his friends, professional mentors, coaches and even his own doctor to give the world a glimpse into his life, truly not a life lived ordinary. Free from corporate sponsorship, Sam swings the ole cliché of "Telling it how it is" freely and openly discussing a wide range of topics with an eclectic representation of the people he loves and respects.
