In this episode, Trevor and Ben sit down with Rick Wilson to discuss the Keto Diet, some cognitive enhancers such as Modafinil, and also some healing peptides. Rick is a local athlete who had to work hard to get to where he is today. His journey to get in better shape is unique due to some genetic factors which we discuss in this episode.
The Keto diet played a big role in his success but also the fact that he was willing to do testing on his own and not give up when he ran into a roadblock. He also was not afraid to try things that were different or modify things in order to see what worked best for him. He never thought he would be a guy with abs but after extensive testing, personal experimentation, dedication, and consistency he has not only achieved getting abs but has even competed in a few NPC bodybuilding shows and done pretty well.
There is a lot to learn from Rick's experiences and I hope you guys enjoy this episode!

This is our introduction episode. We discuss what our goals are with the podcast and what we are looking to cover in future episodes. After the introduction, we talk about our experiences with the research drug RAD-140 and the effects it had on each of us. RAD-140 is being touted as a potential future replacement for Male Hormone Replacement Therapy patients using Testosterone. It is said that RAD-140 may be just as effective with supposedly fewer side effects. Next, we go into a discussion about the nootropic drug Modafinil aka Provigil. We had used this drug for a few weeks consistently to see what it did for us and if there were any effects bodybuilders could utilize in their day to day lives. Modafinil is popular among business people, politicians, and college students looking to get an edge. Last but not least we talk about Testosterone Replacement Therapy and some of the things that you need to watch out for while utilizing TRT. We discuss some of the things we typically use to mitigate the side effects associated with Testosterone treatment. We talk about our personal use and experiences with TRT and the doctors that are prescribing it. TRT is a subject that we could probably do a whole show on. There will be more to come on this topic. We hope you enjoy the introduction and keep an eye out for our future episodes.
