In this episode of the Revive Stronger Podcast, I sit down with Matt Ogus for his first-ever podcast appearance.
We explore what 'half natty' really means, the importance of mental health, and the lifelong lessons of training. Matt also shares his journey to earning a pro card, the significance of focusing on the process over the destination, and how he balances his intense bodybuilding prep with being a devoted father and husband.
Plus, Matt reveals his future ambitions in the bodybuilding world. Maybe an IFBB pro card is in his sights…Tune in for an inspiring conversation with one of the fitness industry's most well-known figures
