What is the Podcast about?

Corporate Warrior is a fast-growing high-intensity training podcast with 55+ 5-STAR ratings on iTunes and Stitcher. It has been featured in ThinkBusiness, The Huffington Post, The Reading Lists, Baye.com, and DrMcGuff.com. The podcast has also been recognised by WhatPods.com as one of the top bodybuilding podcasts.

Each episode will typically provide very in-depth insights on how to improve your high-intensity training workouts or build your strength training business. Within the theme of high-intensity training, my guests and I explore workout routines, exercise selection, muscle hypertrophy, fat loss, nutrition, longevity, cardiovascular health, and much more. Under strength training business, we explore how to start a business, marketing, client / trainer retention, leadership, time management, networking, exercise machines, efficient spending, strategy and much more.

Guests include Robb Wolf, Dr Doug McGuff, John Little, Mark Sisson, Ben Greenfield, David Allen, Steve Maxwell, Dr James Fisher, Dr James Steele, Luke Carlson, Skyler Tanner, Dr Richard Winett, Bill DeSimone, Keith Norris, Mark Alexander, Roger Schwab, Dr Stuart Phillips, Dr Brad Schoenfeld, Drew Baye, Noah Kagan and many more (all listed below).

Guests enjoy the show because its friendly, unique, long form and they get final cut. This results in extremely open and raw interviews which people love.

Corporate Warrior began as a way to scratch my own itch. It started after I read Body By Science by Dr Doug McGuff and John Little. To find the answers to many of my questions around exercise and nutrition, I reached out to Dr Doug McGuff to request an interview. The next thing you know, I’ve accidentally started a podcast.

The Corporate Warrior mission is to create the highest quality information available on high intensity training and strength training business. I am very passionate about evidence-based resistance training and improving health. By creating seminal, master-class style content that helps the individual and the business owner, I hope to significantly improve the health and fitness of as many people as possible.
