You're going to. What's going on on everybody?

What's going on everybody? Welcome to the real bodybuilding podcast.

This is episode number 145 and I am here with the training specialist Christian Thibodeau how are you sir?

I'm decent man I'm decent well that's decent is literally the best I can hope for these years with two kids and you know it is right?

Well, I don't I don't have kids so tell me why is why is it decent what's what's going you down you

down you basically stop being a whole human being and you basically live for

everyone else and as someone who is extremely self-centered

and it goes to, it could be by nature,

that was like a huge shift for me.

But no, it's good.

I mean, it did require some important changes with the structure

scheduling stuff like that and putting my own priorities a bit on a

back burner but I'm getting old anyway so it doesn't really matter anymore.

Why don't we tell everybody who you are and what you do?

What are so you're known as a training specialist but can you expand on that tell kind of give me a little bit of rundown for people?

Yeah well I'm sadly a generalist which I say sadly because it's really hard in the modern day to not be branded,

like a body building specialist or powerlifter,

or strength or whatever.

I like everything regarding the training. I started out for the first 12 years of my career as a

strength and condition coach working with athletes from 26 different sports including the Olympians, pro athletes in many sports. I myself, I although I started out playing football for the first eight years, My training was aimed toward that,

but I eventually switched to Olympic weightlifting.

And then I tried bodybuilding, but I found that I didn't have the mental disposition to be good at it.
