Hey everyone, Vancouver Radio, episode number 389. If I'm a little bit echoy today, it's because I'm in someone's spare room in a flat recording this on the fly.

But it doesn't matter.

Hopefully the content is everything that counts.

So I remember years ago in my fitness journey,

I came across gene testing.

So basically a dude went, hey I could show you how to eat

better and train exactly to your genes by doing a little test and basically we can advance your results. So bearing in mind

when I did this test I was probably about four or five years into my fitness journey so

it already worked out quite a bit already about my fitness. You know, I've just been doing stuff in the gym, learning what I enjoyed. And normally most of us train the way we either enjoy or the way that we get results.

Like if you go in the gym and do something and see results,

then you're very much inclined to stick to doing that because you enjoy the reward of that result.

You either look good or you're strong or you're more agile, whatever it might be.

So I remember getting this DNA report back and it was basically like, yeah, you've got quite a few

slow twitch muscle fibres, so you'd be really good at long distance cardio.

And I sat there and was like, okay, that's cool, but I don't actually like any of that cardio.

Like I play rugby, I lift weights, now and again I'll go for a run, but you know, I'm not overly

enthused about anything longer than about 40 minutes.

And then it didn't really expand much on the nutrition because it was kind of early days

for nutrition and genetic testing and then the kind of other training stuff like this wasn't really enough there

now from the reports that we see online gene testing has come some way in theory from what people tell us but today we're going to

explore that and this is probably the point where I should introduce or say hello

to Tom. Yeah I I am actually here.
