What's going on everybody? We're back for episode number 45 of the real bodybuilding

podcast and today I'm with two gentlemen who are smarter than myself. One we've seen before

on the show Chris Tuttle and a new guest we have is Mr. Lane Norton.

There's a lot of controversial ideas, or maybe not controversial to everybody, but some bodybuilders think maybe aren't

they're not kind of what we do so I want that

unconventional yeah but they're interesting nonetheless because I've read through a lot of your Instagram and it's the interesting part about it is I would like to be able to diet the way you say we can diet and I would like to be able to do some of the things you say we can do, but something keeps holding us back as bodybuilders.

So that's kind of why I wanted to have you on to kind of explain and talk to us about your thoughts on some of the things we're going to discuss. Sure. Lane do you want to give us

kind of an introduction or credentials for those people who don't know you first? Yeah, sure.

So we were just talking about this,

actually, Bro Science versus Science.

So I rather describe myself as a meathead who loves science or a nerd who loves

lifting heavy shit. I can curse right? Yeah yeah yeah you can curse.

Good otherwise I'm in trouble. Yeah, so, yeah, I just got into lifting when I was young,

got in the bodybuilding when I was 19, did my first show,

competed on and off for about 10 years, turned pro into drug-free

organizations, coached a lot of people, that kind of jazz, but did, as far as my academic background I did a

bachelors in biochemistry and I did my PhD in nutritional sciences at University of

Illinois and my specific area of focus was protein metabolism.

So that was kind of my, I was very transparent.

I wanted to find out how to get as jacked as humanly possible with science right so that was kind of that was my

my foray into that

Obviously I've just kept reading research ever since I graduated.
