What are you training for? What keeps you coming back day after day?
Especially when things get hard, whether you’re looking to improve your body composition, training for a personal best or simply exercising for optimal health in body and mind, it’s important to create clarity around our goals.
And to help us make sure we’re training the right way, avoiding injury and focusing on the results that really matter, I’m happy to be here today with the one and only Jay Ferruggia, a coach, writer and host of the Renegade Strength Show.

Before You Go
Here’s a quick announcement. As you may know, my wife, Alyson and I started Wild Superfoods about 5 years ago to bring you some of our favorite health-boosting supplements.
We built Wild Superfoods to create the highest-quality supplements you can trust at a reasonable, fair and good price to you.
But with skyrocketing prices in manufacturing and shipping, we’ve made the difficult decision to move in a different direction.
We’re not going to compromise on quality, raise prices to eye watering levels or sell out to some multinational corporation. So for now, we’ll be shutting down WildSuperfoods.com and retiring the brand, at least for a bit.
But if you’d like to get one last discount and stock up on Collagen Cocoa, Future Greens, Vitamin D Stack, Mega Omegas or any other of our favorite supplements, you have one last chance—just go to WildSuperfoods.com and you can save 15% off with the coupon code: SAVE15
And for all of you who have purchased from Wild Superfoods or even better, been subscribed, some of you for more than 5+ years, thank you so much for your support.
You’ve really helped keep this show and our work going over the years, and hopefully you’ve been topping up your nutrients in the best way possible through some really hard times, especially health-wise.
We’re proud of the work that we’ve done, we think it’s the right time to make sure that we’re not raising prices to some ridiculous level.
It’s really important to us to deliver on our promises, stay true to our mission, and also make sure that we can open up doors to new projects down the road.
It’s a tough decision to make right now, and we appreciate your support in the past, right now as well as everything that will be coming down the road.
So thank you for sticking with us and believing in what we do.

Did you get enough sleep last night? Are you feeling well-rested or a little bit frazzled?
For some people like me, nutrient deficiencies can get in the way of proper rest and recovery.
And you might be surprised to learn that over 75% of the population is deficient in magnesium.
And what most people don’t know is that even if you’re taking a magnesium supplement, you still may be deficient if you’re not getting all 7 forms.
The good news is that Magnesium Breakthrough from BiOptimizers packs all 7 forms of magnesium into one powerhouse supplement.
Not only can the proper forms of Magnesium help you sleep better, it also helps calm your mind and allows you to feel grounded and relaxed during the day, especially before bed as you drift off to sleep.
So, if you’re ready to try Magnesium Breakthrough for yourself, just go to magbreakthrough.com/wild and use promo code WILD10 during checkout to save 10 percent.
Plus, as an extra bonus, BiOptimizers are including a FREE gift with your purchase.
The free gift changes each month, so go to magbreakthrough.com/wild to see what freebie they’re including in your package this month, and be sure to enter the promo code WILD10 to claim your 10% listener discount.
