The Pizza Athlete John McNamee's AMCAP

John chats to The Pizza Athlete who loves Pizza and Training. He doesn’t see pizza as a bad food but a great way to fuel his workouts and something he enjoys eating.

We talk about the benefits of a diet focused on eating what you enjoy over restrictive diets, how all foods can be good or bad for you depending on the portion and why you should never put broccoli on a pizza.
