In this episode, I sit down with BPN athlete Luke Hopkins, a pro natural bodybuilder and hybrid athlete currently training for an Ironman. He recently graduated from USC with a degree in neuroscience. Luke shares how a positive mindset and psychological strategies impact high-level sport performance. He and I cover the physical and mental challenges of Ironman training, the importance of progressive overload, and the benefits of group training.
