Mike Israetel joins me this week for a massive 2 hour catch up! We discuss the challenges of body and muscle dysmorphia - how to identify it and work through it. Mike also opens up about his personal journey, including shifting his focus away from hardcore bodybuilding, reducing supplement use, and changing his approach to leg training. We also chat about his experiences on huge platforms like The Diary of a CEO and his plans for RP as it continues to grow. Plus, much, much more! You don’t want to miss this one.
