  • A True Expert

    Listening to Dr. Andy Galpin’s podcast is like getting an unfair advantage in the gym. . .for free. After listening to hundreds of exercise “experts” who ultimately disappointed, I finally found a real one. World Class information on exercise and exercise nutrition.

  • Training & Fitness Principles

    Dr. Galpin has an exceptional ability to break down complex scientific research and to clear actionable advice without oversimplifying the science. I appreciate that podcast focuses on what the evidence actually says rather than chasing trends or making exaggerated claims. I continue to learn so much from his podcast and he has a great teaching ability. I always look forward to when a new podcast comes out.
