I'm vocal about how fitness has changed my life massively, but in this episode we get into the nitty gritty of how I continue to stay lean.Here's some highlights...• How it all started: "I had a video camera and a big mouth."• "My mom tells the story of me, first day of kindergarten, not wanting to go with wide-legged pants, so I wrapped a roll of scotch tape to make sure they were a little more tapered. I mean, this is how deep this goes."• How being on YouTube has forced him to be a better person• "Everybody thinks I'm a huge douche."• "I really felt like in today's world, you need a different set of skills in order to sort of dominate and kick life's ass. And so I wanted to be one of the voices letting guys know that it's okay if you're not 'this.'"• How ultimately, it all boils down to confidence• How fitness was his "first love," and how he found it• On competition: "The one day that you look your best, you feel your worst."• "I love working out just by myself. Put my earphones in.
