This week we're joined by David King, Austin’s #1 Personal Trainer. David is not only an incredible trainer himself, but he has now gone on to consulting other PT's on how to achieve what he calls "Personal Training Excellence." So if you are a personal trainer, or you're considering working with one, this show is a must listen.

David & I have actually teamed up to bring an awesome program to help Personal Trainers up their game. We're just launching it in beta right now, but if you'd like to check it out, head on over to the Fat-Burning Man website to get the scoop.

On the show, David and I talk about:
  • Why fruit makes you fat
  • How to be an ace personal trainer even if you don’t have much experience
  • How to find hidden sources of sugar that are stunting your fat loss results
  • Why eating for fat loss and eating for performance are completely different things
  • Why personal training clients lie
  • How many carbs you really need
  • And much more...

"As a trainer...You have to know what the client wants - get them to pin point what's more important: weight loss or performance?" Click to Tweet!
