I brought Drew on my podcast today and asked him alllll the things! We go through things like:
š¬
The science behind what is happening/going to happen in his body, and also advice on what health markers we should ALL be getting tested on a regular basis.
ā¤ļø
The emotions he is experiencing (food cravings, brain fog, body image), what itās like for his daughters (ages 9 & 11), and how his relationship with his girlfriend @juliefreedom is being impacted by this experiment.
š„šš»
We broke down what a typical day of meals looks like for him right now in the weight gain phase. One of the cool things we talked about is how heās breaking down a lot of the popular fad diets as he does this...Vegan, Keto, Paleo & Vegetarian. Heās going to show how you can do all of those the right way OR the wrong way.
āØ
My favorite part, though, is where Drew explained his genuine intention and goal for doing this. He wants to bring empathy to the forefront of the fitness industry and show how having an empathy-first approach can have so much more of an impact than what you typically see in the fitness industry (get skinny, get a 6-pack, etc) and make everything all just about body image.

I really think youāre going to love this podcast with Drew (who is a long-time friend of mine). Youāre seriously going to want to follow along on his new journey...I know I am excited to see how it goes!
