Drew’s guest is the self-proclaimed desk jockey and fitness hacker, Jay Kim, who lives in Hong Kong with his wife and family. Jay struggled most of his life with getting the physique he wanted. He went to the gym and did all of the workouts in the fitness magazines but never reached his fitness holy grail. One day, an offhand comment from his genetically blessed wife led Jay to delve deeper into what being healthy really meant. He tossed the supplements and magazine articles and started experimenting on his own body focusing more on his diet, through nutrients and intermittent fasting. Jay shares his fitness journey and describes the different ways he helps clients sculpt and maintain the body they want.
