Choose Hard with Cody McBroom

#981: An Inside Look, At Tailored Coaching Method

The recent testimonial videos we’ve recorded, live in the gym with our clients, went so well and were so impactful! So… Naturally, I told Brandon (videographer) to aim the lens at me and ask away! We did this just to get a couple instagram clips originally, but it was long enough to make for a great short episode of the podcast and because of that, we’re going to share it with you here!
So tune in and listen to the CEO’s perspective behind the brand – why it was started, what “Tailored” truly means, and how what we’re doing is making a difference in the world today!

#974: The Beginner’s Guide To Physique Competition Prep

This episode is an interview I did for my great friend Cody Smith’s Podcast, where he brought me on to go over “How To Prep For A Physique Competition” – but specifically to cover it for new competitors and individuals who have never prepped before! So it’s a great overall podcast that I know you’ll get a ton out of, even if your just interested in fat loss and muscle growth alone (rather than competition prep).
Can find Cody on IG @coachcodysmith and listen to his podcast, The Virtuous Coach on Apple or Spotify.

#972: CrossFit to Physique Competitions w/ Evelyn Bruce

We’re honored and so grateful to bring today’s guest on, because they’re an avid listener of this very podcast!! Which made the show so much fun and you’ll experience that with us in this episode.
However, that’s not why we had Evelyn on the podcast… We had her on to share her fitness journey and transformation story, which began as just a Mom who jumped into a CrossFit class to simply make her husband happy…
But it quickly escalated into her becoming obsessed with the physical development and transformation process, which led to competing in CrossFit and opening her own training facility called The Buffalo. However, her CrossFit days ended when she suffered a serious injury that took her out of the gym… but like most triumphant success stories, every downfall is just another step towards greatness! In Evelyn’s case, this led to her current passion and journey of bodybuilding.
We dive into her story to learn how she handled all the above while being a mother and wife, continued growing her fitness business, competed in figure competitions, dealt with body image issues, shifted her mindset around strict dieting, and what her current prep for Junior Olympia looks like, as we speak!
Follow her on instagram to keep up with her training, @evelynbrucetraining
