No Excuses - IFBB Pro Bradley Betts

No Excuses - IFBB Pro Bradley Betts

The first time I met Bradley, I said, "you know there's a wheel chair division right?" I knew there was something special about him. Well, he let me know he was already pro and turns out had already been to the O. So glad I finally got a chance talk to Bradley outside of the gym and learn more about his journey with bodybuilding. Fresh off his Dallas Eurpoa win, you can catch him next on stage at the Olympia.

Forward: The Movement - Seth Parks

Seth is my guy. I've known him since I moved to Indy and since then I may know only one other person as obsessive about bodybuilding as him. In the gym Seth trains balls to the wall with the most intense focus. Some days I just wave to him in the gym lol. But still he happens to be one of the nicest guys in the gym and we've talked about everything from race and police relations to rap and anime.

Daddy's Girl Turns Pro- IFBB Pro Tanya Youngblood

This week I sat down withTanya Youngblood, the daughter of Jim Youngblood. And when I say she is a daddy's girl believe me. She even turned pro in the same league as her father. Now I've been waiting patiently to host this conversation because Tanya is a teammate of mine and I've only seen pictures our coach has leaked. So when she won her pro card I couldn't be happier for her. Give today a listen.
