In our first crossover episode, Michael speaks with host of The FitCast, Kevin Larrabee.

Kevin Larrabee graduated from Keene State College with a BS in Health Science in August 2008. He is a Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist through the National Strength and Conditioning Association. Kevin has had a passion for fitness and nutrition ever since winning his battle with the bulge at the age of 15. After discovering the effects of diet and exercise, Kevin lost 30 pounds in three months. Ever since then he has been striving to learn as much as he can about fitness and nutrition. He recently opened his first training studio, Allied Strength, in Gloucester, MA. Kevin created The FitCast Podcast after looking for a decent fitness and nutrition podcast and coming up empty. He has recorded more than 450 episodes and interviewed some of the best and brightest in the industry. The FitCast was named Best Fitness Podcast by Men’s Health Magazine in 2015.
