In this episode of Cylence Unlocked, I’m joined by two coaching legends who’ve shaped some of the best physiques in the game, my coach and co-host Damian Segovia and the legendary coach Kim Oddo. We get real about the highs and lows of coaching, the mental and emotional toll this sport can take, and what it actually takes to build a legacy, not just a body.

From funny client excuses to the pressures of coaching Olympians who compete against each other, nothing was off-limits. Damian keeps it blunt, Kim brings the wisdom, and I just try to keep us all on track. We laugh, we reflect, and we break down the trends (and BS) we’re seeing all over social media. Whether you’re an athlete, a coach, or just someone who loves the sport, this one’s for you.

Hit play, and let’s go behind the muscle with the minds that shape the stage.
