Ep. 170 - Training 1200+ Days In A Row w/ Jakk Gerard RNT Fitness Radio
-
- Alternative Health
On this episode of RNT Fitness Radio I’m joined by Jakk Gerard, who shares his story of going from suicidal thoughts to a remarkable journey of training in gym 1200 days in a row and counting. Jakk epitomises using the physical as the vehicle, and in this he speaks straight from the heart about breaking out of the victim mindset, taking the small wins, and climbing out of rock bottom into a whole new life he lives now.
“Your emotions are fuel. Channel it into something positive.”
- Jakk Gerard

If you’re in the UK, and you use supplements, I’d highly recommend checking out Reflex Nutrition, where they’re giving you up to 40% on all their range if you use the code PTRNT at checkout. I’ve been using Reflex for nearly a decade, with their Micro Whey being one of my favourite whey proteins. It’s grass fed, hormone free, and digests so well compared to most on the market.
