Brandon and Hodge go over some of the risks they have taken that have paid off, and share some past experiences from the party days.Brandon gives his feedback with the new program being 3 weeks into his program. Troubleshooting issues and making changes to his diet to fix. Hodge is irritable being one week out from his next bodybuilding contest. So, of course, we have rants about why people cannot grow, why people cannot follow a plan, and why in the hell do people get such an attachment to food.

One reason so many people fail is lack of resilience. Being defeated or set back from your goals can cause you to fail, or it can make you a champion depending on how you analyze, identify, and apply the experience. IFBB Pro Domenick Dibenedetto shares with us what he has learned now that he has finished a month of back to back competitions in Classic Physique. He believes resilience is something everyone can learn and he tells us how.

Life is goal setting and problem solving. If you have stopped solving problems you have stopped moving forward.
Why are goals better than dreams? How can focusing on one keep you from the other even if they are related. What is the “Drama Cycle” and how has it caused so many people to fail?
Thinking too far ahead can be negative (my prep for example)
Tell the story of my app and how it was something that should have waited
I could have spent that time becoming a better trainer and building a name and brand first.

IFBB Pro D’Andre Booker joins us to talk about his journey from losing contests to winning his IFBB pro card. With gyms shut down due to the pandemic, he innovated his prep instead of quitting, and won his pro card at the 2021 NPC Universe. We also discuss (trainer to trainer) common setbacks with people who want to get into this sport as well as seasoned veterans that change coaches to try a new approach.
Social media has provided a way for thin skinned people to dodge constructive criticism, convincing themselves they are ready for something that still requires more work, and has made being unhealthy the new normal.
This episode is a good “wake up call” that everyone can benefit from listening to.

How can you tell a true friend from someone who just wants something from you? You need to know this so you can cut off those that are holding you back.
One mistake some true friends might make is laying down pressure when all they are trying to do is show support. What are better ways for them to support without adding to the stress or workload?

New IFBB Pro (Wellness) Leticia Allen joins us to discuss the challenges of this sport that most on the outside do not realize. She explains what actual manifestation requires in order to become who you want to be and why most people get it wrong. Most people do not use every free moment to stay focused nor do they have the will power to reset their thought process to battle common obstacles that come with this sport. Learning how to do this, and putting forth your hard effort, will put everything in the right place for you to get what you want.

We all know someone or have been that person that talks about making change but never takes the first step. Just talking about it seems to give a quick reward but does not provide the satisfaction they desire. Our society is programmed to be validated by thumbs up and hearts instead of acting and showing results. "Like me for who I am" seems legit but is it really an excuse to make people feel bad for calling you out? Akira and myself reflect back on our own past to provide insight on why people do this and why it does not bring the satisfaction they desire.
