In this episode we talk to Greg Bulsak, 2 x NCAA All- American who breaks down the full body-transformation journey—how wrestling shapes bodybuilding discipline, how to balance corporate life with serious training, and how to push intensity without sacrificing recovery or form. We dig into muscle-building nutrition, carb timing, digestion, cardio for bulking and cutting, core strength, lower-back sensitivity, mobility work, and long-term longevity strategies, finishing with a look at how peptides and medical interventions can support a sustainable, high-performance lifestyle.The Iron Summit podcast provides general health and fitness information for educational purposes only.
