The More Than Fitness Podcast With Matt McLeod

Aadam Ali — A Day In The Life, "Focused" Comparison, & Setting Better Expectations | MTFP Ep.106
I had the extreme pleasure of having my friend Aadam on the podcast again for the third time. And just like the two previous episodes (Episode 9 & Episode 49), this one was phenomenal—maybe even the best yet? I'll let you decide, but for those who don't know, Aadam is a fitness coach and writer for his site, physiqonomics.com. He's one of the best, if not THE best fitness content creator in the game. I may be biased, but I think many others would agree. And even though he rarely does podcasts, you can tell in this episode that Aadam spends a lot of time thinking about these complex issues and distilling them in a digestible fashion. So, after you listen to this episode, make sure you check out the rest of his content for more fitness wisdom gems with a sprinkling of F-bombs. Enjoy!

-How he's been handling COVID in the UK
