What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

Enjoy the show because of the guests that are on, but the host talks WAY too much. The guests are the reason I tune in but I don't get to hear as much from them because the host is talking rather than listening.

Wheelhouse · Nov 2025

This is a great show!! The Scott and crew always go over the best topic and break them down for the listeners. You get well rounded point of views from world class trainers in the fitness industry. I’m always eager for the next episode

Dvs2445 · Mar 2024

These guys have great guests but are extremely long-winded in talking about things that don’t matter and often times brush off key details. I’ve listened to a dozen shows and every one has left me disappointed. If you’ve got time and are looking for background noise, enjoy. But for brevity and useful information, there are much better sources.

Maybe you came for the fitness; maybe you came for the guns (or maybe the epic beard): If you’re looking to learn something- it’s HERE. *Now* not every episode is “for you” (pssst- that ok); but as Scott approaches 100 episodes- there’s content here that will speak to you. HIGHLY RECOMMEND! (Appreciate you Scott!)
