Today we are joined by one of our very own. Ron Garrett has been a powerlifter since he was a teenager and has competed and trained essentially his whole life. He’s an Army vet and is still working as a contractor for the government. He followed the conventional wisdom of medical advice and ended up developing diabetes. He found keto and fought through to regain his strength and become the absolute best version of himself possible. He also is an active member of his church and community and that’s why he’s here to talk with us today. He shares about his training routine but he also shares about the impact he’s trying to make on the African American community he’s surrounded by. He lives by example and shares freely the health and spiritual wisdom he has to share. You’ll want to listen a couple times. It’s just that good!
