The health and fitness space can be a quagmire of fads, follies and fake news. But it doesn’t have to be that way.

Meet The Antagonist staff writer and host Simon de Veer, a personal trainer with over a decade of experience working with real people from all walks of life, as he breaks down the historical, philosophical and scientific connections that fuel some of the biggest fads in fitness today.

The Mind Muscle Podcast is a space in which Simon is able to passionately educate and often debunk the ever changing landscape of the fitness industry. From learning about the history of diets and exercise, to how you can genuinely apply this advice to your own health and fitness, The Mind Muscle Podcast is here to help you actualize those goals in an informed and enthusiastic way.

Remember, your mind is just as much of a muscle as the rest of your body and it should be treated with the same amount of respect.

Join us on a new fitness journey, where the end result isn’t just getting ripped, but learning about how and why you got ripped in the first place. After all, there’s nothing new out there, except all that has been forgotten.

New episodes every Thursday! Listen below or follow Mind Muscle on your favorite podcasting platform.
