In this episode, I sit down with CJ and Syd Spjute—a powerhouse husband-and-wife duo who not only compete together in bodybuilding, but coach clients and raise a family together, too.

They’ve lost over 150 pounds combined and built a strong Instagram following by simply sharing their truth: transformation, faith, family, and fitness.

We talked about:

  • How fitness became the glue for their relationship and family
  • How they involve their kids in the journey
  • The way they keep God and family first, even in the chaos of prep
  • What it’s really like doing bodybuilding show prep as a couple
  • The biggest lessons they’ve learned from being out of shape to getting completely dialed in
  • How they handle judgment from others—especially from close circles
  • The balance between discipline, business, and being present parents

This one was inspiring, real, and packed with perspective shifts. Whether you’re a parent, couple, or coach—there’s something in here for you.
