Gianna is back with a special guest for National Fitness Month. In this episode, we welcome trainer, strength coach, and owner of Compound Performance, Kyle Dobbs, to Stronger U Radio. 
Kyle found his passion for training while rehabbing sports injuries in college. After graduating with a biology/chemistry double major, he moved from the Midwest to New York City and quickly became a high-producing personal trainer at a big commercial gym. Kyle worked up the corporate ladder in education and management as his career advanced before eventually leaving for the private sector. After gaining experience overseeing thousands of employees over several domestic markets, he and his wife relocated back to the Midwest, where he would start his entrepreneurial career. He founded Compound Performance a little over six years ago and has since founded a second company, the Compound Training app, where they have worked with several thousand clients and trainers. 
Kyle and Gianna sat down for an inclusive conversation about fitness from his perspective as a trainer and strength coach. During this episode, they dive into: 
  • Kyle’s approach to his fitness routine as a busy business owner and dad 
  • Tips for getting started with exercise as a beginner 
  • The importance of customization and choosing the right exercises to meet specific fitness objectives, emphasizing strategic use of exercise variations 
  • Adjusting frequency and volume to optimize results 
  • How nutrition and other lifestyle components factor into performance, recovery, and results 
  • Training approaches suitable for the general population versus those designed for high-performance athletes 

You’ll walk away with relevant insights and strategies whether you’re a new exerciser, fitness enthusiast, or a coach. Tune in and then head to the Stronger U Community to share your thoughts.

Join me on this podcast as I navigate the murky waters of human behavior, current events, and personal anecdotes through in-depth interviews with incredible people—all served with a generous helping of sarcasm and satire. After years as a forensic and clinical psychologist, I offer a unique interview style and a low tolerance for bullshit, quickly steering conversations toward depth and darkness.
