Summary

A man that wears many hats, Anthony Gustin is the definition of a fearless innovator. Developer of the the formerly known PureWod nutrition products, Anthony has since then expanded his company into a wide selection of all-natural products from clean and whole sources. Anthony’s products are unlike any other supplements out there today and that is because of one simple reason. Anthony believes in the quality above all else and has dedicated himself to creating supplements that will nourish the body in all the right ways. No shortcuts, no bullshit, only pure ingredients from whole foods. In this episode of Meathead Hippie, Anthony also provides information on treating soft tissue injuries by strengthening hinge movements, advice for big goal-setters and how to manage having many projects ongoing at once. He is certainly a man that wears many hats and in a way, resembles the very essence of his products. Anthony is a person that sets high expectations of himself, leaves no room for shortcuts while pursuing his goals, and has the purest intentions of far exceeding them.

Happy Wednesday. I'm excited to bring an episode with someone I worked with for a long time,

0:05.6

Dr. Anthony Gustin. It's fun because we got to do a double back-to-back podcast.

0:10.7

So I interviewed him and then he interviewed me. So stay tuned for his podcast release and another

0:16.9

continued conversation of all things, business and fitness and supplements and just meathead,

0:26.0

meathead shit. Current obsessions, I am trying to gain four pounds of muscle, which I realize is

0:34.3

really ambitious. And, you know, I do this in-body that I have where you can really get

0:40.5

a great analysis of your body composition, segment to lean muscle mass. So like right leg versus

1:14.3

1:30.7

And I'm not going to lie, I haven't done a great job this week,

1:33.5

Any events that I have coming up are a little bit later in the month in February, March. So I'm just going to get right to the podcast. Enjoy. I'm Emily Shram, the ultimate meathead hippie. Welcome to the show.

2:16.6

All right, Dr. Anthony Gustin, welcome to Meathead Hippie.
