Customer Reviews
Learn and laugh at the same time
I actually laughed out loud in the car on my way to work this morning when you guys were talking about the Swiss miss pudding cups. I’m always looking for a new episode on my commute, this show is a trusted source for health and fitness info as well as relaxing to listen to as Jordan and Mike banter back and forth. I’m working on an online coaching cert right now and see myself joining the mentorship in the future. Again, a very trusted and reputable source, Jordan and Mike.
Trust Factor
These guys have built up trust with me over time. They’ve been there and done that and share their experiences in an entertaining way. I looked forward to their drop every week.
Entertaining and informative
I’m a disciple of Jordan through his membership the Inner Circle and have read their book Eat It which is great. Discovered Jordan and Mike had a podcast from a fellow Inner Circle member. I’ve been thoroughly enjoying their conversations. They make me LOL frequently. They’re also both very knowledgeable and very kind and nuanced with their advice. This isn’t just a podcast from wannabe personal trainers. If you’re interested in health and fitness, you would enjoy it immensely and learn at the same time.
