The internet is filled with fitness myths that promise quick fixes and magical solutions. From the carnivore diet to the "best exercise to make shredded abs!" - there's a lot of 💩 out there.
So when UK-based Michael Ulloa (@michaelulloapt) came through my feed calling out lies on the internet - I knew I wanted to be friends and have him on the show.
Michael is a personal trainer and performance nutritionist with a unique talent for making health advice accessible and empowering for everyone, regardless of their fitness background.
And while we could have gone through the myths line by line, I wanted to empower you with your own BS detector.

You'll learn:
- How to spot BS on the internet
